It does, at first. The more you "work" with the cloth, the more the fibers break down.

Like I said, it's been a while since I've worked with the stuff, but it felt nice and smooth until it had been folded and refolded a couple of times, and then I ended up having to use a wad of duct tape to pull splinters out of my hands.

After that, I used gloves all the time while handling it. Further research indicated I should have been using a respirator, too, as inhaling the fragments is bad for the lungs.

Can you find an MSDS on the material?
