Make your own clothes

Nowadays, the fashion industry is running at full speed.
Fast fashion is constantly expanding and the arrival of ultra fast fashion is causing ever faster and more polluting production methods.

To counteract these bad effects, you can opt for a more eco-friendly alternative like knitting.
From cute tops for summer to chunky sweaters for winter, knitting will keep you dressed all year long.


Our knitting tips for beginners:

- Your needles should not be too big: sizes 5 and 6 are ideal for beginners.
If you choose larger needles, you will have a hard time handling them, while the thinner needles are much more difficult to grasp.

- The choice of thread: choose cotton!
It is easy to work with and not very expensive.
For its size, choose a medium size thread (50g for 100m of thread).
