If Sheep Could Talk Episode 4 - Sewing Welcome to the Knit Night Society! This is our short history audio podcast that we are putting out between the Knit Night Society videos! We hope you enjoy Ali teaching Kelsey about fiber history and maybe you learn something new. In this episode, Ali tells Kelsey the history of sewing! More specifically, the history of the sewing machine and angry mobs of tailors that stood in the way of progress. Also in this episode there is discussion of the Fashion Revolution, and the week where we all remember the 2013 collapse of the Rana Plaza factory that killed over 1,000 people and brought to light some of the deplorable conditions that many in the fashion industry are forced to work in. Please visit fashionrevolution.org to learn how you can demand change from your favorite clothing companies. Disclaimer: Ali is not a historian only a professional google reader so take everything she says with a grain of salt because not everything on the internet is true.
