I'm comparing
- 12k carbon fiber 4,5kg tow
- Carbon Fibre 2/2 Twill 12k 650g

On a per kilo basis, using the best price on bulk, tow is 37.7 GBP Kg per kilo and cloth 32 GBP.

This doesn't seem to make make sense since cloth is tow cost + cloth making costs (machinery,etc..). Am i seeing anything wrong?
