Below is a short film by Benoit Millot on the origins, processes, and uses of linen. Linen, it’s so fascinating and so beautiful. This film reestablishes my love for it as a natural fiber; as well as my love for integrating it into knitting and sewing these days. If I were in my right mind 10 years ago, I would have majored in textiles. Phooey.
there is a great movie on the japanese art of paper making, you would love that, now if only i could remember the title, it was very fascinating. gotta love them jap-on-ese (that was only a phonetic spelling, nothing else) 🙂
