I'm so glad to see this blog entry and reading list as well. I weave cloth using locally sourced and milled fibre. It's important to further this cause by networking with others. A great starting point is to go to the Upper Canada Fibreshed http://uppercanadafibreshed.ca/ where you'll find farmers, producers and designers. I have been fortunate to have partnered with designer of Peggy Sue Collection http://www.peggysuecollection.com/ and Upper Canada Mercantile http://www.uppercanadamercantile.com/ Contact Upper Canada Fibreshed and get involved.
