Yes! This is one of my favourite stories. In fact, to take it further it became velcro as a portmanteau—"velours" (velvet) and "crochet" (hook)— I love the creativity behind the thinking and everything. I've told all my friends it nearly became 'let's put some mestral on there to stick it together'. Haha.
I saw the burr photo above and had to write. I could not find the picture of my very furry dog, Shiloh, covered in green burrs from nose to tail. She never looked better than after the two-hour grooming session. I got a whole lot smarter as a result.

Who knew? Not me! But thanks to you Nancy, now I do :)
So cool. Had no idea this is where it came from.
I met a dog today named Momo!
That was really interesting I never knew that!
