technique. 100% baby alpaca cable stitch mitons with 4cm cuffs ribbed
by 3x2.
challenge. the original design was a long sleeve color-block sweater intended to arrive from south-America two weeks before the Mercedez-Benz Fashion Week (in CDMX).
Because of issues with customs the product arrived 24 hrs before the fashion show took place. However, the fit was not as expected and in order to stay in line with the collection we decided to cut off the sleeves and dress the models with these “mitons” as accessories. The decision turned out to be a success story and sales alike.
