Riiiiiiiight…. What’s a Socktopus?
Here’s a little something awesome I found featured on Inhabitat.com, a blog that focuses on sustainable design and architecture. You can order a plush mollusk called a Socktopus that is made from recycled sweaters and is "lovingly filled with hypoallergenic polyester". I think it’s brilliant because the recycled result is convincingly a new product, whereas some recycled products fall short and just seem like stuff with garbage stuck to it. And wisely, despite the catchy name, these are made of sweaters not socks! Aren’t they cute?
Which got me to wondering…what would it look like if Bill Cosby recycled his sweaters?
