Knit nuts like me love it when winter bites. Merino, mohair, possum, Cashmere, lambswool; I don't care if it's hair or wool, the kind of ingredients you find in a fancy, hand-knitted wool jumper are worth their weight in gold. Lately, I've been working on developing socks and I've found it's important to have both elasticity and durability on your feet. With winter looming large, its time for wool to take centre-stage once again. Local is good; soft jerseys, wool hats and snuggly scarves are the kind of thing I wear every day in winter.
