I wanted to work directly with her, weaving links like threads, building a story, a little more each day and for a long time. These are the things that last, the things we love. They are what allowed us to cross time. Even today, they are what you find behind every knit, every pattern, every idea. The sense of creativity, the taste for sharing, generosity and exchange…
Knitting is a discipline that takes time, some pieces require many hours of work, and therefore patience. We want to have beautiful, eco-friendly pieces produced 100% by hand, and we want to showcase the small hands behind the creation of the garment.
It’s not just women who knit t-shirts!
I would like to introduce you to Claude, the man of all situations; passionate about knitting but especially crochet! He always finds a solution. I love talking with him, exchanging ideas, and not just about knitting. He teaches me how to plant my vegetable garden, make preserves, go pick the mushrooms, and how to dry them. To tell you the truth, he has tips for everything. Claude is Georgette’s son; in the perfect family, I ask for the mother, the son, and the beautiful daughter….
Isabelle the quiet strength
I admire Isabelle, her energy and determination.
She is always calm and peaceful. She is a life lesson in itself!
Annick a benevolent light
She has perfect technique, her expert eye is sacred. She creates and finds new finishing techniques. The quality of her work is precious and rare. She is generous, willing, efficient, humble! I often tell her that she is a bombshell (she laughs). A real delight!
I met Annick while on vacation in Egypt! The collaboration continues now for 10 years. Without her, I definitely wouldn’t have made it there; I owe her a lot.
