Description

Wool may be the most eco-friendly textile there is, and Erin Martin Dorf is here to tell us why. Erin is wool royalty, or as she calls herself, a wool industry nepo-baby. She lives and breathes all things wool and sheep, and we talk all things shearing, lanolin, the wool supply chain, and how it goes from sheep to sweater. We also cover the serious threats to the wool industry, and why it’s under threat of collapse. This episode might convince you to stop sleeping on wool. Or rather - to start sleeping under it.
