Green Tip for the Week
|
|
Rag Trade
Just because some of your oldest clothes are too worn out to be useful to anyone in their current incarnation, they shouldn't be discarded. Some charities are becoming adept at fashioning new items out of the best parts of unwanted old garments. They can even be shredded and rewoven into new items, via a charity-run textile-recycling program.
