35 Thousand Year-Old Socks

Happy Fashion Revolution Day! Well, it was when Sandi recorded this episode anyway, so it might be a bit late for you to celebrate the occasion...but there's always next year. 

Far from being an occasion which celebrates the industry, it's there to raise awareness of those who are forced to work in inhuman conditions in order for us to have a new outfit for every occasion. 

New outfits aren't something that many of us have needed of late, although the 'grandmother crafts' which allow us to make a new jumper, dress or scarf are being employed by millions of us after having completed Netflix. 

The skill of knitting has been with us for at least a milenia and originated somewhere you might not associate with needing a cardigan.

See you tomorrow and don't forget ... we will get past this.
