I tried my best to get a sustainable cleaning cloth, which ended in a huge project and I discovered a new sustainable hobby. But is this the most sustainable cleaning cloth in the world or is there something, which can be improved?
It is appalling how much people destroy the planet or what they do to animals just to get some material.
In this video I try to show alternatives that are much less harmful, like 100% organic cotton.
Crochet is fun and anyone can learn it very quickly and with the right yarn your pieces can also be made 100% of love and with love is meant that any cruelty is omitted (as you can see in the video).
