This documentary was simply a masterstroke in filmmaking. I've long searched for a well informed, artistic, and overall beautiful presentation of the textile industry (in particular wool) and its many intricacies. Thank you very much for this insightful film.

I’m wearing a wool sweater I bought 35 years ago and it still looks like it did when I bought it. Thanks for video. I visited the Pendleton Woolen Mill in Washington State and it was noisily fascinating

Watching this as I'm spinning some lovely grey Merino I've washed and combed. Doing the spinning on a beautiful drop spindle and plying with an Andean ply. Very restful. On to knitting my socks!

I'm wearing a merino wool shirt as I watch this, as I do almost every day. Next-to-skin soft!

Beautifully produced documentary on wool. There's a beauty, craft, and art for sure in the work of those who hand work and machine work wool into wonderful fabric for many uses in life in the British Isles. One of my favorite sources for wool products. ❤

Excellent film! I was born and raised in a small town located in Lancashire, which had a cotton mill, this film brought back memories of going into that mill, and I have to say from the noise and smells, did not entice me to work in the textile industry! As a knitter and looking for more local resources I am thankful for those sheep farmers around me that have taken the initiative to use as local to them that they can find micro mills to bring back to their farm wool for crafters to enjoy in the making. This film obviously has a global outlook but the end result is the same, producing quality product to the consumer.
