Distaff

Designer: Anniina Isokangas (2017) 

Beautiful and ornate spinning wheel distaffs crafted by ancestors inspired the creation of this pattern. From handdrawn sketch to pattern, from pattern to fabric, and from fabric to garment. The "Distaff" pattern is a tribute to handicrafts.

Loop by loop, you think of the person for whom you are crafting, filling the knitting with emotion.
Similarly, once upon a time, a distaff was crafted. Every nook of it is filled with love.
Lived life becomes memories in old objects, inspiring the creation of something new with their stories.
