Armi’s collaboration with Lapuan Kankurit includes two designs, KAKSIN and RANNALLA.

“KAKSIN, in particular, is a true representation of how most of my work comes to life. I started by drawing different kinds of flowers and plant illustrations, and the shapes came about almost by accident – what if I drew this big flower with a swan’s neck as a stem? And then I tried some more things, and more ideas came forth. The design was quite literally born in front of my eyes. RANNALLA is a companion piece to the former, where elements were taken from KAKSIN to showcase the environment around the swans.”

100 % wool – and pleasant warmth. The weft yarn is made in the EU area from high-quality, certified Wool Integrity NZ fibre, while the warp yarn is spun in the EU area from certified South American wool fibre. In order to achieve the best result, the fibres of our wool yarns come from different parts of the world, because the quality and fineness of the wool varies depending on the breeds of sheep and their living conditions. All yarns are mulesing-free wool.

The product design, material purchases, loom programming and warping as well as the pre-work stages, weaving and fabric inspection are done in our own weaving mill in Lapua, Finland. The sewing is done in our subsidiary’s own sewing department in Kaunas, Lithuania, or in our own sewing department in Lapua. The product wadding, drying and tuft finishing is done in our finishing plant in Lapua, Finland.
