Oh Yeah? Just Wash Me.

Boy, did I wash a lot of underwear in preparing for today's tip. Cashmere and wool sweaters too - in the ES washer and in the sink; in mesh bags and all different scents. I've never been so fluffy or so fresh (oh good for me) - though my hands are definitely on the lizard-y side.

You're trippin'. Try an eco delicate wash instead of dry cleaning to avoid use of the toxic chemical perc, which has pretty much the same effect on the environment as too much acid has on your brain.

Knit on your life. New-school yarn purveyors are spinning some rad eco-materials, such as organic wool, so grab a skein and get needlin'.
