　　Fashion never ceases to surprise me. Recently, a fashion designer came up with another strange creation.
His idea comes straight from the garbage dump, so to speak. He makes sweaters from used plastic bottles. Whata weird1 sweater that's going to be!
This new kind of sweater will protect you from the rain and cold. They will, therefore, be especiallyattractive to outdoor people such as fishermen, hunters and mountain climbers. However, they're not cheap.
They sell at prices ranging from US$100 to US$150. What a great idea for making money! Don't you think?
