About
We make super cool handknitted clothes for young people, beanies with tails, fuzzy colorful tops, skirts and scarves. Everything is made by hand, so each piece is a special wearable art that keeps you warm and makes you stand out!
Impact
We're revitalizing traditional knitwear craft by making it relevant and exciting for today's youth. By creating sustainable, handmade fashion, we're offering an alternative to fast fashion. We build a community of young creatives.
Progress
We've successfully designed and produced multiple collections. We've built a distinctive visual identity through creative photoshoots. Now we're ready to scale ourselves, expand our reach, and establish a new knitwear culture.
Team
We're a collective of young students. We understand youth culture because we ARE youth culture. Each of us brings our own knitting techniques and creative vision. This isn't a side project,it's how we're earning our living and funding our big dreams.
