This shoulder bag is created with care and craftsmanship. It is knitted from yarn that has been leftover from the carpet production at Ege Carpets. It is spacious and practical – perfect for small purchases, the beach, or as a bag for yoga and workouts.
The bag features a simple, graphic hole pattern and leather straps that give it a lovely expression. The bottom is knitted in seed stitch and crocheted with edge stitches.
The bag is knitted from two different threads – a wool yarn in changing colors and a white accompanying thread, which is slightly thinner but also 100% wool. Mixing two types of yarn in this way is technically called melange. In addition to adding life and depth to the expression, it is also a technique that fits perfectly into a circular mindset. By blending different yarn scraps, we can give new life to materials that would otherwise go to waste, while also creating completely unique and beautiful color plays.
This version of the FRAAES NET is a one-of-a-kind product with a beautiful, warm color play in autumn shades like orange, brown, red, green, and yellow. The bag is unique and exists only in this one copy.
Behind each FRAAES bag lies a work that takes place in its own sewing workshop in Aarhus, where the circular mindset and the desire to create products that can be used for a long time is the starting point for all designs. Kirsten is an example of how materials can gain new life in beautiful, timeless design when we think in terms of recycling and quality.
