The Charred Pocket Lint is a crafting ingredient. It was originally added in the June 19, 2012 Patch, as the Pocket Lint. It appeared in the backpack as a small lump of fabric.
Using this item with three other incinerated treasures formed a Pile of Ash. This item was removed from the game in the July 11, 2012 Patch. As of the November 21, 2013 Patch it is no longer removed on login, but it may not be used in crafting.

Trivia
- The item's description changed when viewed while equipping the Eliminating The Impossible set. It changed to "...the... which...", with random characters removed, which is a part of a quote from the "The Adventure of the Copper Beeches" short story, part of The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes collection. When combined with the other items added in the June 19, 2012 Patch, the full quote read "Think of the deeds of hellish cruelty, the hidden wickedness which may go on, year in, year out, in such places, and none the wiser."

Is it fabric lint? Navel lint you're keeping in your pocket so you don't lose it? Naval lint brushed from the hull of a battleship? This is pretty mysterious lint.
