Every year I select new designs to be knitted in Sri Lanka. These are usually different designs than those knitted the year before.The designs are always knitted in small editions, so you are sure to get a unique product when you buy a hand-knitted design from me.
The IKAT STOLE is knitted by hand by the most skilled knitters in Sri Lanka and it takes about 3 - 4 weeks to complete this masterpiece.
I have had the pleasure of working with these Sri Lanka women since 2012 and each year 60 knitters knit for me full time 3 months a year.
