From fitted shirts to Y-fronts
Growing your own vegetables and keeping hens for eggs has become a fairly common life choice for people who care about the environment and want to be self-sustainable. But what’s the next step? To clothe oneself is a life essential, second only to eating, and it’s about time more of us did it ourselves, according to journalist John-Paul Flintoff. He brings his crochet hook to the studio and joins Jane to discuss his decision to make his own clothes, from fitted shirts and jeans, right down to his Y-fronts.
Through the Eye of a Needle by John-Paul Flintoff is published by Permanent Productions ISBN: 978-1-85623-045-2. | |
