I used to be quite a major shopper, going for quantity, and often “well-made” things that were expensive but that had zero consciousness for the materials used, their environmental imprint, the toxin load they carried, and the circumstances under which they were made, including the fairness of labor for and treatment of the people making them.

While I admittedly have found it challenging to be meticulous with the pursuit of bringing more consciousness to all clothing purchases, much headway has been made in companies creating brands based on offering this, making it easier for me to find better options.  I love to share information like this on how we can use our financial choices to empower others and send messages to manufacturers that consumers are starting to pay more attention to details about their clothing like these mentioned.

To help celebrate this glorious winter season and support companies and individuals who are bringing more consciousness to clothing, I have compiled some great sites to check out for higher consciousness winter wear.

Make it Yourself

Then of course there is also the old-fashioned way of adding consciousness to clothing by making things yourself 🙂

Here is a great book by Louisa Harding, “Hats Gloves Scarves: Easy Designer Knits for Family and Friends”

You can find great options for yarn made of wonderful natural materials here at Darn Good Yarn 🙂

Happy Conscious Winter Warming 🙂
