Bridal kid mohair bolero EMA – for a cool morning and a cooler evening
A short, lightweight kid mohair bolero with sleeves to the forearm and a fastening at the front.
The shorter sleeve leaves your hands and wrists free – for the rings, the bouquet and the glass in your hand.
Three women's sizes, S to L, knitted elastic so it adapts to you.
Fine enough to see the light through – it reads as a haze rather than a layer. Thin does not mean cool – kid mohair is warm even in a knit this light.
Every panel of this piece is knitted to shape on its own – fully-fashioned, never cut out of a length of knitted fabric. The panels are then hand-linked: a person feeds the open stitches onto the linking machine one loop at a time, so the seams stretch with the knit.
It is hand-finished – hand-steamed over a shaped pad and washed before it leaves the workshop, so it arrives at its true size and stays there. The yarn is spun in Italy.
I design every piece myself, and it is knitted in a small workshop here in Lithuania – a few at a time, never off a production line.
Every piece passes through my hands before it is packed – I check each one myself before it goes out.
It arrives in a plain brown box with the care card inside and nothing else – no filler paper, no leaflets. That is a choice, not a saving – I would rather use less than print something that is made to be thrown away.
Color – beige.
