Grace Gui’s novel “Sustainable Knitwear” asks what we want to leave for the next generation?

We once walked behind Costco and she would throw me into the tree and pick up mulberry leaves to feed the worms. We washed our faces with silk cocoons.” The rest of the material comes from farms near the Tri-State area, and in her speech, a piece of paper was posted next to each of her model tableaux, which included a detailed breakdown of the source of each fiber (all from female farmers) ( All), natural dyes) and embellishments.

Who will carry your inheritance right? ”
