This tank top has been hand-knit in a multitude of colors. The knit is light but very hairy.

Its armholes are trimmed with a crochet finish dotted with small colored balls.

Each piece is unique because it is hand-knitted.

A HAND-KNITTED MOHAIR SWEATER

A HAND-KNITTED MOHAIR SWEATER

At first, Raphaëlle knitted our sweaters by hand, then we called on friends, then we had to find a hand-knitting factory, and fortunately we met Ecaterina. She has a big house in Craiova, Romania, where ladies come to hand-knit your mohair sweaters.

Britney knitting requires a lot of attention and balls of yarn!

It's hand-knit with circular needles for a total color match that literally swirls from the front, to the sleeves, to the back.

We check every piece, because in hand knitting, every piece is unique!

This sweater is in stock and not available for pre-order.

Yes, I do a lot of pre-ordering, but this sweater is in stock!

Why is that? Simply because hand knitting, which makes for some very, very beautiful and very furry sweaters, is still very much a craft. Each person knits in his or her own way, and I'd even go so far as to say that the same person doesn't knit the same thing twice. So I prefer to order very small series that I can check in detail and offer for sale as soon as I have the pieces in hand.

A FRENCH THREAD

A FRENCH THREAD

The mohair yarn we use for this hand-knitted sweater is a chunky yarn (hand-knitting obliges). It comes from one of the last French spinners on the Millevaches plateau. His hollow-spindle spinning capacity is very limited because his machine is too old. So he buys the raw yarn in Italy and dyes it in France, but within 18 to 24 months, he hopes to be able to spin his mohair yarn into scraped bouclettes again in his workshops, thanks to investment in more modern machinery. The dyeing is carried out in France, and it's a bamboo-filled basin, totally natural and highly efficient, that retreats the dyeing water.
