Another discovery at the show was Annie Sherburne's "Eco Annie" collection. Her approach to making good use of what we already have with style was remarkable and whilst I was there, at least, her message was reaching a sympathetic audience. This yarn is made from 50% recycled textiles and 50% new wool and has a satisfying crunchy texture. As with the Massey-Rogers collection, the stylish packaging and eye for detail makes all the difference. 
I keep my blog as a personal record of what I'm up to, which might be seen as working towards "An elegant sufficiency, content, retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books, ease and alternate labour, useful life". I'm certainly not there yet. There is quite some way to go!
