So with winter approaching, Australian Knitting Mills seems to be closing down their operations. Or at least that was the just of what I got from the lady in the shop today. They’re an eccentric bunch but if you want some high quality wool made in Australia their products are top notch. I’d be inclined to recommend that people visit the shop (Collingwood) rather than order online as they’re a bit odd, lovely but, odd. https://www.aust-woollenmills.com/
FWIW I got socks and singlets. For your height, they do a shearers singlet which longer is for bending over while shearing, but for a taller guy it’s just tuck in and stay tucked in.
They do wool t-shirts. Black or white. $40 which isn’t cheap, but it’s quality. The singlets I got were 38 which is 2.5 the price of chesty bonds which frankly don’t last that long anymore. They did long sleeve tops as well.

Do they do short sleeve t-shirts?
I have a big issue with singlets.

Awesome. Bonds are crap. I’m happy to pay for quality.
I kinda want to know the full story here. How they seem to be closing not on their own terms. They are clearly angry about it. How did we get here?
