YARNS
38%Wool/25%Alpaca/23%Mohair/14%Polyamide
Certified Woolmark, Alpaca, Sustainable Mohair & Genuine Donegal

→ This season we worked with a mixture of 3 different yarns, our all time favorite Donegal
Merino wool, combined with a sustainable Mohair and a fantastic Alpaca to give the richest
texture, like the Lanugo skin of a foetus.

 

BRAND LABEL
100% ecological cotton from Bulgaria
certified OEKO-Tex Organic Cotton
Machine Knitted

→ I wanted a knitted label to go with a knitted sweater, woven labels tear the knit apart,
it doesn’t move along with the flexibility of the knitted garment.

 

COMPOSITION LABEL
100% unbleached cotton from Bulgaria
Printed on woven textile

→ I wanted a composition label that was easy to remove, because they always annoy
me while wearing a garment. Therefor it’s only stitched with 2 stitches. We draw the sizes on
by hand, to save material for all different sizes available.

 

HANG TAG
100% FSC Paper
Made in the Netherlands
Printed on paper
certified OEKO-Tex Sustainable producer

→ I wanted a hang tag that could be used after use, not just something you throw
out after purchase, so came up with the idea of a bag where you could put some lavender in.
If placed in the Box with your favorite knitwear, it will keep the moths out.

 

BOX 
100% FSC Paper
Made the Netherlands
Hand Finished

→ I wanted a box to keep your sweater in after purchase. The box had to be a jewel
itself, not just a case to transport it home and throw away. The shape is inspired by a
chocolate box, the inside is inspired by vintage Oberkampf&Cie wallpaper and contains
all the sweaters of the very first collection. There is also a hidden Waldo…can you find him?

 

BUTTONS
100% Coroza (coconut)
Made in Italy

→ I wanted sustainable buttons, therefore I chose Coroza. We only work with 2 colours
and 3 sizes, not to have to make new buttons each collection and save the environment.
