Process
Rarely, and on purpose — the discipline of saying no
Most of what we sketch never gets sewn. A short account of the pieces we cut from the first collection, and why the range is stronger for what it leaves out.
Journal
The Journal
Notes from the workroom — on cloth, on process, on the places our garments are made. Written slowly, published rarely.
Notes
Why the Name Remains
On abbreviation, restraint and the discipline of removal — why, once the vowels were taken away, nothing essential was lost.
Process & Place
Places
A morning at the mill
Where our cloth is knitted and dyed within sight of the river. On the people at the machines, and what it means to keep the whole chain in one valley.
Notes
Notes
How to let down a hem, and why we leave the cloth
A short guide to a repair anyone can make at home.
Fabric
Garment dye, and the mineral colours we keep
On dyeing finished pieces, and a palette drawn from stone.
Process
Nine patterns for one tee
Every revision that moved the shoulder, and the four millimetres that ended it.
More is being written.
