Raw Materials

Most of our yarns are made from renewable raw materials, sustainable fibers, or recycled materials. For us, the use of natural materials is not only important from an environmental perspective, but also offers valuable quality benefits, such as natural moisture regulation and breathability when wearing the finished hand-knitted items.

Our product range also includes undyed options, and we completely avoid chemically treated superwash yarns in order to offer products where the fiber’s natural properties remain intact. This allows you to clearly see which materials come into direct contact with your skin.

By adhering to high-quality standards, we lay the foundation for durable textiles that will bring joy for many years to come. This approach aligns with the principles of slow fashion and reflects a responsible use of resources, materials, and craftsmanship.

Animal welfare

Responsible treatment of animals and the environment is a central part of our values. Livestock is often raised on vast, uncultivated areas where alternative uses are not possible, such as in semi-arid regions. This provides the animals with a natural habitat while also supporting the sustainable use of land resources. The land is left to its own devices, and no fertilizers are used. Furthermore, the animals contribute to the natural improvement of the soil, as the herd loosens the surface, thereby allowing nutrients to penetrate the soil more effectively. In this way, the ecological balance is supported and the environmental impact is reduced. 

For our wool qualities, we use mulesing-free wool from Uruguay.

Supply chains

We maintain long-standing partnerships with traditional, owner-operated businesses and are in constant, close contact with them. Our regular on-site visits, both to production facilities in Japan and to farms, allow us to verify firsthand that production is fair, resource-efficient, and sustainable. 

Resource Efficiency

Resource efficiency is at the heart of our brand. It begins with the thoughtful processing of natural fibers, artisanal techniques, and the development of high-quality yarns designed for durable, resilient, and timeless textiles. This philosophy shapes every step of the process.

Improving our environmental footprint is therefore not an isolated goal, but a logical extension of this commitment. We operate with a lean organizational structure, utilize shared services, and continuously optimize our processes. By using renewable energy and constantly reviewing our packaging and logistics solutions, we strive to use resources responsibly.

Waste is reduced, carefully sorted, and sent for recycling. Yarn scraps from production are reprocessed or effectively reintroduced into the material cycle.
