Materials and origin

100% superfine merino wool purchased directly from farmers in Australia and South Africa. Washed, combed, spun and dyed by Lanecardate and knitted by Ley Tricot in Italy.

Maintenance

We recommend that you avoid washing your wool sweater. This will preserve the wool's natural properties and softness for much longer, and extend the life of the garment. Try airing the sweater instead, outside or inside. Leave it for at least a day to neutralize odors. Try to remove stains without washing the entire garment. If you need to wash the entire garment: Dry clean or machine wash on a gentle cycle with wool detergent or by hand, max 30 degrees. Gently shape the garment while it is wet. Dry flat.

The sweater is knitted "fully fashioned". This means that the different parts of the sweater are knitted in their final shape - instead of being cut out of a larger knitted piece - which results in neater seams and no excess scraps.

The story of the garment

We often look for inspiration in vintage treasures. On one of our treasure hunts in a thrift store, we once found an old knitting pattern. All that was left was the cover of what had been a booklet, the actual knitting patterns were gone. On the cover were pictures of the knitting patterns, and one of them was a wool sweater with a scallop pattern.

We made our own version of the pattern, translating it from coarse hand knit to fine jacquard machine knit and changing the colors to a soft gray-green and milky white.

Jacquard is a collective term for various techniques that can be used for pattern knitting with multiple colors.

Our scallop sweater is knitted in a way that makes it just as pretty on the front as it is on the back. Also notice how well the pattern is placed on the garment and how it matches in all the seams. This is a sign of good craftsmanship!
