Wool and the Gang is a DIY fashion brand - ethical, traditional, inspirational, recreational - and more, it is a gang of knitters, guys and girls from 7 to 77 years old, all tied together by a piece of yarn!
'Ever since Swiss-brand Wool and the Gang was founded by a pioneer of DIY fashion, Lisa Sabrier and Carolyn Main, in December 2008, their exquisite Peruvian yarns are enveloping an ever-expanding ‘gang’ of knitwear enthusiasts and knitters across the globe. Whether you choose a ready-to-wear piece that has been hand-made in the mountainous regions of Peru, or opt for one of the Ready-to-Knit kits – the result will be a treasured piece of craftsmanship infused with the wisdom of countless generations. Both timeless and timely – WATG embodies the caring face of fashion and re-connection to our creative selves.
The Designers – Hand-picked because of their dedication to all things hand-made, Gang-Leaders Aurelie Popper and Jade Harwood both graduated in Textile Design at London’s Central St. Martins College. After working for established names such as Alexander McQueen and Balmain, these ‘sisters of sustainability’ brought their expertise to New York where they have woven their passion into chic and individual alternatives to disposable fashion, and created easy-to-follow kits for new ‘gang-members’.'
Join The Gang – Wool And The Gang will teach you how to knit - with online video tutorials, tips and ideas on their blog. COOL!
