Big thank you to @cityofsydney for their support of our upcoming textile recycling project 🙏🏻
We’re turning post-consumer knitwear (unsaleable donations collected from the @salvosstores depot in St Peters) into spun yarn! 🧶
Charcoal 🖤◼️⚫️ from our Citizen Wolf #Recycled yarn range.
The heathered effect is produced by the blending of black & dark grey recovered textile waste fibres with undyed, naturally white Australian merino wool.
No bleach, no dyes 🙅
Here's a newish local startup trying their cleverest to reduce fashion industry waste. @dempstah turns offcuts into knitting yarns. Hear their first-ever radio interview with @wendy_harmer & @robbie_buck from this morning. #recycling#sustainability https://t.co/4wwXOmfPS0
Many thanks to @abcsydney@wendy_harmer and @robbie_buck for chatting with me about how we’re recycling Aussie textiles into new yarn on this morning’s show 🧶
