That the previous testing was flawed isn’t new, but I don’t recall the detail of the cotton fibers in previous articles.

Raymond Rogers determined that the patch material was linen but it had cotton fibers inter-spun into the flax fibers which is not at all representative of threads taken from the main body of the Shroud. The presence of cotton IN the fibers is the anomaly.
