@@xXOpenYourHeart759Xx i think it has to do with the fact that fur is an easy win for animal rights organizations who can't affect change when it comes to the nightmarish conditions other animals experience in farming, and that people have less of a need so are more likely to associate fur with rich assholes or characters like cruella. like a mink mill or overfeeding foxes for the highest output is something we should avoid, but it's hard to argue that native peoples hunting seals or beavers or whatever in sustainable numbers is anywhere close to that. if anything it's more reasonable because you need very little meat to survive, most people probably eat an unhealthy amount of meat, but people sustainably used furs hundreds of thousands of years and no other material comes close.

Other options are silk, soy based fibers and something we call "super underwear" which is made from polyester to keep you warm while still breathing. You can also try a variety of non-sheep wool to see if that works better with your skin, like alpaca and angora. And there's always down jacketsbor coats for the top layer. But what you're doing now isn't wrong either. It's common for people with sensitivity to wool to do a layer or two of cotton against the skin and then do wool on top where it can't touch you but still keep you warm. Hope this helps!

It completely depends on where you are, from Canada here, and honestly for us -9 really isn't all that bad (admittedly it's easy for me to say that because I'm used to -30 on a regular basis and since I moved to Ontario have literally never actually worn my winter coat because there's no need). I do agree that layering is absolutely key and in my case, wool has never truly left my wardrobe either. I totally agree about needing to cover your ears and even though it wasn't fashionable my grandmother (who was Polish btw) used to use head scarves, which were always wool, and then put her hat on top unless it was really cold, then she didn't wear the hat. Gloves, same thing really, you would really need to have fur lined gloves although at -9 you might be able to get away with wool lined, but again layering is the thing. I know you probably don't want to hear it but what meant you could spend that much time in the cold pre-central heating was the fur. Lots and lots of fur everywhere. Coats, capes, blankets, etc. Also lots of breaks to go back indoors, warming huts were a very big thing everywhere. And lots and lots of hot drinks, teas, hot chocolate and hot toddys. I also laughed every single time you stuck with Celsius instead of Fahrenheit. Literally I have no clue either so it was kind of refreshing for me to hear that. Please tell Gosia that even though being the control in the experiments sometimes sucks, we appreciate what she went through for us. Give her a hot toddy.

The problems with overheating, maggots etc. are human-made: sheep have been bred so that they have deep wrinkles in their skin (and thus produce an unnatural amount of wool). Wild sheep don't have any of these problems. Additionally, sheep are often treated very badly, for example handled roughly during shearing, castrated (males) and inseminated (females) with painful methods, and ultimately slaughtered. So as practical and warm as wool might be, it's worth choosing cruelty-free options instead.

Case in point,I made a baby blanket for my niece out of moderately quality, washable wool, not the nicest stuff, but still good. That kid is nearly 4 and drags that blanket everywhere. It’s held up well, she loves how soft it is and will tell you “feel it” just to prove it. Makes me a happy aunt! Wool is a nearly miraculous fiber.

I loved the sweaters, but I couldn’t for the life of me wear them without having a layer underneath that would cover my whole skin and prevent any contact (a nice cotton turtleneck top with slightly too long sleeves did the trick for me). People just need to realize that some people having allergies to something doesn’t mean it’s bad for everyone (I’m looking at you gluten).

The sleeveless-ness gave me ventilation in the club and the velvet kept me warm outside, to the point where I was the only person not shivering 😅 Not enough people wear velvet casually, like, velvet CAN and SHOULD be casual, it’s just a fabric, like cotton, or silk/satin etc.

You would guess correctly, usually the living rooms were heated through fire, but the other rooms weren't. And the further away from the fireplace the room was, the colder it got. So bedrooms very cold, kitchen fine (you work with fire in there, so it was pretty warm anyways), bathrooms rather cold, depending on how much money you had. Btw houses (like the one I live in) still have that heating point of having the fireplace in between the kitchen and the living room. So you put the wood inside the ofen from the kitchen but the heat giving side is towards the living room. And in castles or bigger houses they either had a lot of money and fireplaces or only a few warm up rooms and just kept warm through other means. Little portable coal boxes to put underneath you feet were a thing as early as the ~16th century.

If you're getting good quality natural fiber yarns, you really shouldn't have much problem except for (non-superwash) wool's ability to felt, which is predictable - just don't heat it while wet or rub it against itself while wet and you'll be fine. I think a lot of the problem people have is starting with cheap wool yarn, which uses poor quality wool with short thick fibers which make it itchy and less sturdy than long, fine fibers. I find acrylic yarns pill much worse for me than wool.

What a great experiment! And so pretty, too! Totally agree that we tend to overestimate modern cold-weather clothing. I live in Canada, and the northern indigenous people, for example, still wear traditional fur coats - not because they couldn't have modern coats if they wanted them, but because the modern ones are seriously inferior! I also think its worth remembering that 1800s Europeans lacked central heating! They didn't just need to know how to dress for outside weather - they needed to know the most efficient ways to stay warm indoors! Makes perfect sense that they knew what they were doing, or they wouldn't have survived in Northern Europe.

Great video! Wool is fantastic! When I was younger, in the 80s, I loved long outdoor trips in cold winter. Once it was between -35 and -42 C (-40 is the same in C and F) for five days. I was fine the whole trip. Double wool underwear, thick wool sweater, thick wool vintage trousers from the1950s. Double wool caps, two wool scarves, one covering the face. Two pair of wool mittens. Big vintage leather boots, with wool socks and one pair of very heavy wool felt socks. Outer layer was a home sewn anorak and wind breaker trousers in "watertight" Egyptian cotton. I was not freezing at all. Was sleeping in a heavy down sleeping bag on top of two reindeers skins. Some friends used heavy duty synthetic materials, it was clearly not as warm, and the big drawback at -40C was that it got extremely stiff (and noisy), like having clothes made of thick tarpaulin. Wool is really great, even when it gets wet/icy. My thick wool felt socks got a bit moist from my feet and the outer layer actually froze and stuck to the boot, but my feet were still warm and comfy.

This is why I always have spare cardboard around: so my impromptu projects don’t make me hungry all day. Mmmm pizza!

Back then we didn’t get rid of every hair on our body. The first layer of insulation was free.

My body hair doesn't get any treatments in winter and it does zilch for warmth. Not even a little, because the clothes just squash it flat, eradicating any air insulation.

i have a genuine rabbit fur coat from the 1970s (it belonged to my great-great-grandmother, so a senior citizen fashion queen i can assume) and the past 3 winters i’ve had it have been the warmest winters of my life. i also got wool-lined leather boots from the 60s last year and typically my feet turn into ice blocks with any shoes but those babies do the JOB. i only ever get animal clothing products from secondhand sources and i don’t think i’ll ever want to turn back because i’m extremely sensitive to the cold and those materials do wonders in wintertime.
