Cinema Talk: Regenerative Wool Supply Chains

Wool has more to offer than softness. Join a conversation on its journey from sheep to textile and rethink the value of this local resource. Join us for a conversation exploring the value of wool beyond softness, looking at the material’s origins, diverse qualities, and the knowledge embedded throughout its journey from sheep to textile. Following the screening of THE VALUE OF BRITISH WOOL, we’ll be joined by Nicci James to discuss how designers, farmers, makers, and researchers can work together to rethink wool as a local and abundant resource. Come join the conversation and explore how we might build more meaningful, place-based, and circular relationships with the materials we wear. Panelists Pollyanna Moss (host) Nicci James (knit specialist and researcher) Nicci James is a knit specialist and researcher championing the diversity of native British wool breeds through digital knit technology and innovative design.
