Recycled sweaters by Mod to Modern have a green chic

Some sweaters are ugly. Others are just too big. And then there are the ones that are simply out of style and doomed to hang on the racks of your local Sally Ann or Value Village for ETERNITY.

Unless, Michelle Bergon-Mok finds them. Michelle recycles and redesigns sweaters under her label, Mod to Modern. Based in Vancouver, she finds a way to give new life to old wool.

You'll find Mod to Modern's sweaters at the Green Christmas Market in Vancouver. It happens this Saturday at Blim.

JJ Lee visited Michelle's studio today and the first thing they talked about was German literary philosphy.
