Rest in Fleece

Wool is as green a fiber as it gets (a point I make in Sheepish,) but here's an idea that tops them all: wool coffins. The British have been finding ways to increase wool sales for four hundred years, so they're very good at it!

Unfortunately, Wool makes me itchy; thank goodness it has a cotton lining! Seriously though....I prefer cremation.

Velly intellesting! Reminds me of something you knit and then felt. (Hmmm, do you think we knitters could make our own that way??)

A guitar case!

I, too, will go the cremation route, but I think these guys should market their coffins in the US.

What a weird blog topic...coffins. Must be the lack of sunshine. I feel as if I'm living in Seattle.
