I'm happy that the BBC has taken action. I still feel sad that there has to be a separate category for "disabled beauty". But, a sign of progress, nonetheless.

I would say they are 80% wool, 20% stretch? Not sure of the exact mix, they don't have labels. They are great, but they run extremely large - I am swimming in them! So - is there a way I can shrink them safely? I did accidentally pop one (that fit me well) into a dryer for 10 minutes, and now it's shrunk to too small. I wonder if I put the too-big ones in the dryer (wet or dry?), if they will get perfectly snug? Or should I just try to take them in on the sewing machine? thanks... Alita Hey Tricia –
