Description
We're staying in Scotland for this weeks episode, with Dr Lynn Wilson, currently of the Centre of Circular Design. Lynn has had an incredibly long and varied career in the clothing industry, including working in vocational art and textile training in a high-security prison, helping communities in Africa build a textile business, public policy and Zero Waste Scotland. There is mention of moths, and we may also agree to disagree on how great an idea the leasing of jeans actually is.You can find Lynn on the web at www.lynnwilson.co.uk and www.circulareconomywardrobe.co.ukGarmology is researched, booked, hosted, edited, published, paid for and everything else by Nick Johannessen.

No poop in the soup - With Martin Ridne of Jernvirke: Today's guest is Martin Ridne of Swedish micro-brand Jernvike, literally a husband and wife brand from Stockholm. Jernvirke has been in business for around a year and I wanted to check in with Martin to hear about the experience of starting a clothing brand from scratch, what they bring to an already crowded table, being hands-on with the factory that makes for you, the trust-issues you face with your suppliers, and what sustainability means when you're still a young business. We get into all this and more, I hope you enjoy it. PS: The title of the episode? You'll need to listen for the explanation :) by Garmology - A podcast about clothes, and stuff.
