Why do I choose to wear wool? How long-lasting and environmentally friendly is wool? I like what Prince Charles is continuing to do regarding the marketing of wool.
This week, The Prince of Wales’ Campaign For Wool has launched a scarf this week to mark its 10th anniversary.
Charles urged society to put “nature at the heart of how we operate”.
Why buy wool?
The Prince of Wales’, Charles praised the sustainable and biodegradable properties of wool and said it was a product the “most brilliant boffin in the most hi-tech laboratory could never create”.
Charles created a limited-edition unisex scarf costs £150 and has been designed by Amy Powney, from luxury sustainable brand Mother of Pearl, and manufactured by Johnstons of Elgin.
Scarves are well worn especially as one gets older. It’s a safe bet regarding the selling of wool items. Anyone and everyone should own a good wool scarf.
