### 2/5 — What is Roving???

*2019-07-15*

The definitions are not very good.
Example:   The definition for “Roving” says it is a rope of fibers running parallel to the roving. So... what is roving?

Also, you have to scroll down, down, down. It would be good to have a search tool, or at least be able to go directly to the R’s (for example.)

### 1/5 — What happen?

*2018-10-25*

Once you click on it, it’s black and cuts off. I was really excited to get this because I am starting to sew and would love to learn more about fabrics.
