 They feel fairly soft. The idea here isn't to make clothes out of jello jigglers. It's to combine the dissolvable fibers with more common textile materials. You know, if you use these fibers and you weave them into like a traditional garment, like a t-shirt, and you had different types of fibers in there, like cotton yarns, for example, if you use the gelatin almost as like a scaffold and structuring, you can dissolve that and then easily pull out the cotton yarns.
