'FLock' on its own is not a fabric-it is finely cut threads that are sprayed on
material and objects to make them fuzzy. One of the last remaining 'flock
plants' is here in Claremont (or was, may be closed now) If you ever had one of
those early 'bobblehead dogs' in your car that was fuzzy, that is what is
sprayed on after a layer of adhesive to make it have that velvet feel. Still
used in the automotive industry and some furniture.
Just FYI in case anyone is wondering. But 'flock' is not a 'cloth' or material
itself although it can be PART of material-I had a bag of it that was used in
screenprinting years ago. Screen the adhesive, sprinkle the flock on and let it
cure and you had 'fuzzy' lettering.
