No no no. I am well aware of the knitted variety that make us of mixed fibres.
My thinking is that possum fur may be a viable alternative to duck/goose down in puffer style jackets.
Apparently there is a sizable number of our population that object to duck and goose down, based on some dubious methods of obtaining the end product. ( so my greeny sister tells me)
