NATURAL & RECYCLED FIBERS
I use natural fibers. cotton and wool are more eco‑friendly than acrylic. acrylic is made from plastic, which is extremely harmful to the environment and takes decades to breakdown.
there's tons of eco‑friendly and recycled yarn choices like t‑shirt yarn. I even make my own with old t‑shirts.
