Haik Avanian has a mother who likes to knit. If you send her an old jumper she'll knit the wool into something else and send it back to you.
In January it was scarves, in February it's fingerless gloves. In March it's likely to be hats.
She can only do 30 a month (at $30 a go) and it's just a lovely way of re-using old clothes and materials, and getting something unique and handmade.

Also on the theme of clothing, this blog from Britex Fabrics strikes just the right note in being passionate about materials, including Button du Jour
