More info about wool

One of the coolest things about wool is that you can make it yourself.

No, really. You just need land and sheep. And a spinning wheel, which you can make yourself, or you can use a drop spindle. Then you can knit or weave - and make the loom, too. Anyway...

Having a woollen wardrobe also enables you to go further between washings. It simply doesn't stink, not as much at least. I suppose it depends on the individual. Overall, while you're busy doing innawoods things, or perhaps bugging out, laundry won't be your foremost priority. It's important to be realistic about that and embrace the funk - but with wool, you hardly have to embrace the funk at all.

This is because it is antimicrobial, which makes it the more hygienic material.

The only other materials that could possibly compare would then have to have silver ion technology in order to have the same anti-funkness as wool, on top of outperforming its insulating properties and breathability. Even while wet.

Do you get it yet?
