Crochet & Openwork
Artisanal hand-crocheted openwork and textured trim.
Handcrafted crochet details, granny squares, and crochet-effect openwork stitches for bohemian summer collections. We offer two routes: hand-crocheted details and trims applied by our experienced artisans, and crochet-look structures replicated on the flat-knitting machine for consistency and faster lead time on larger orders. Hand crochet produces a one-of-a-kind artisanal hand-feel that justifies a premium retail price point, with applications in summer dresses, beachwear, bohemian resort wear, and gift-set accessories. Machine-replicated crochet-effect is used for granny-square cardigans, openwork beach bags, and consistent trim details across larger production runs. Production yarns cover cotton cord for natural summer hand-feel, raffia for beach and resort positioning, and linen-cotton blends for transitional season pieces. Lead time on hand-crocheted pieces is longer than our standard knitwear because of the manual labour involved, and minimum order quantities on fully hand-crocheted garments are typically negotiated case by case. Buyers are bohemian and resort wear brands, summer collection labels, and gift-set manufacturers looking for an artisanal positioning.
Hand crochet requires skilled manual artisans with strict piece-to-piece tension consistency, making batch production management critical.
