Soft, Supple, Sustainable (S2C E19)

Today we are all about cashmere and a vibrant, game-changing, craft business in Troy, NY. Meet a powerhouse and a joy, Kathleen Tesnakis, founder and creator of ekologic.

In this video, and the full-length one on our main YouTube site, Kathleen shares with us not only her passion and knowledge about fiber and business, but what she has seen in the 25 years she has been innovating and re-tasking waste cashmere from production clothing. Time and intellect have brought her valuable perspective on what the industry has learned, where the tipping point is, and most brilliantly, on what might come next.

Check out our YouTube site at Subject2Change – Sustainability for the full-length conversation, as well as links to resources, people, and events she mentioned.

Dress better (!) and be greener,
