For example, is a comforter made with multiple fibers okay?

I am not sure if the prohibition by Leviticus applies only to clothes, but multiple fibers will be woven into one.

The only fibers not to be worn together are wool and linen. Where in the bible or Leviticus does it mention any other fibers or material besides linen and wool. It doesnt.
Leviticus 19:19Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind: thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed: neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woollen come upon thee.

Unless you are jewish and living under the old testamnet only, then it doesn't apply to you. But then again, it really doesn't apply to anyone in this day and age because all of that was done away with at the cross.
lastly. Because it was in Leviticus, it was meant for the preisthood only of God. Not the preistood of the catholic church. I have to add that so you don't take liberties with the word priesthood.

The Leviticus prohibition on items made of multiple fibers is for the Nation of Israel alone. God gave them such restrictions to Distinguish them from all other people in times PAST.
It is not a restriction enforced on anyone today, as God has changed programs and is now in the age of GRACE.

I suppose if Leviticus wasn't literally saying you couldn't mix fibers then he also wasn't saying literally that there was anything wrong with homosexuality either?

That Old Testament prohibition was symbolic of God's desire to have people be separated unto Him and to be pure and Holy. Such commands are no longer in force because the symbolism attached to them was fulfilled when the Holy Spirit came after Jesus went back to Heaven. It is God's Spirit who fulfills the symbolism of such commands because He calls people out from this world system and begins the work of sanctification which leads to inner purity.

Are you Jewish? If not, the Mosaic law isn't applicable to you and don't worry about it.
But stay away from polyester, it won't hold up well in a comforter.

I bet most people will say it's no longer imposed. I find it interesting that just about every law in Leviticus is ignored except for one.

It was symbolic. It wasn't saying to literally not mix fibers.

The Leviticial Laws are no longer in effect. Christ fulfilled them at the cross.
