Circular textiles are simply fabrics, yarn, clothing, and other woven, knit, and stitched textiles that have reached the end of their first life cycle, but, instead of being discarded, are “circled” back into use, ready to be upcycled, reused, or refashioned into something new.

Textiles make up one of the fastest-growing waste streams on the planet. By diverting textiles from waste, gather + make is helping to build the circular economy and reduce the amount of new textiles produced globally and consumed locally in our community.
