Update on Bamboo Sorona
I couldn't ask for a better start to a Friday. I spoke with the mill who knits my Bamboo Sorona fabric. Two things. First, I have 500 yards of my classic bamboo sorona being knit today. That's at least 500 tees worth of fabric. Second, we have decided to make a heavier knit for fall. It will be a little thicker than my normal heavy weight.

The first artificial fiber was created in 1838 but wasn't used for textiles until the 1890's. Since then technology has changed, a shit load. With today's technology we have Tencel, Sorona, Kopak, Bamboo, and Modal. Because all of fibers are cellulose based, they all share some kick ass qualities. Some fibers have additional properties that help you, the client have a better...
