It’s such a great fabric especially for summertime, it will keep you nice and cool. Definitely was with environmentally friendly soaps. There’s a good variety of environmentally soaps available now and hopefully we’ll be getting more. A plethora of fantastic information. Thank you for sharing!

I am a brand new blogger and would love to participate in the Green Mons Carnival sometime. Thanks for sharing. Oh, and to add my two cents, I am personally a fan of shopping second hand for most of our family’s clothing, I have even been lucky enough to find some great organic cotton and bamboo clothing at garage sales and thrift stores!
Smiles,
Terri

Thanks for sharing! And yes, sustainable clothing should be cared for by washing in cold water with ecological laundry products. Good point, Mark.

A portion of the proceeds from the sale of our products is reinvested in infrastructural projects worldwide to help create self-sufficiency for people and communities in need. Our products require no new natural resource and no new color dyes and are made from 100% recycled fibers, (recycled pre-consumer colored cotton from cutting room and textile manufacturing waste and recycled polyester from post-consumer plastic bottles). We spin new colored yarns, knit new colored fabrics, and produce new vibrantly colored, functional and fashionable clothing from materials that otherwise end up in landfills. Equally or more important is that the care of the clothing after purchase requires no bleach, cold water washing and quick drying. Thanks for writing about this subject and helping to educate and create conscious consumers.
Thanks,
Mark Heiman
