Episode 4 – The flax of my tears
In this episode I continue my study of plant fibres with flax. I find out what it’s like to spin and dye.
In the eco segment: Are we really living better with chemistry? My continuing saga of dechemicalizing my life and the interesting effect it’s had on my sense of smell.
And in the vegan segment I look into the lives of dairy cows: Is there such a thing as cruelty-free milk?
