First 2019 sling release! Welcome the 'Romantic Geometry' collection

You enjoyed our 2019 aspirations blog post where we told you about the things that you can expect from us this year. Remember that we mentioned that we were going to re-weave some of our existing designs. So here we go!!! Even though we call these designs our existing designs, they absolutely look fresh because we haven’t woven our geometric patterns for a long time and our double weave benevolence was only woven as a prototype previously.
So if you are already familiar with our trillusion and benevolence designs, we can still assure you this new release is still nothing like you’ve ever seen before. ​

---

The reasons are as follows:

• Some of the designs were woven on a different scale for example when you look at Trillusion Kaitlyn, the triangles are bigger and bolder compared to our previous trillusion designs.
• Apart from the black and white Monochrome style trillusion, all the slings in the collection have contrasting sides so each side of the wrap exudes a unique character. This is like having two wraps in one wrap!
• The colourways have never been woven before
• Even the colour combinations for the two have never been released
• The texture is completely different to most of our previous wraps but for you to understand the texture of this current collection, think of the texture of our original benevolence wrap. Ann, one of our 2018 ambassadors will attest to the fact that that wrap has one of the most interesting of textures.
• The double weave was designed in a way that air is trapped within the two  super soft layers of each sling
• This collection features lots of firsts for us. For example, our first monochrome trillusion is here! So most of the slings in the collection (with the exception of Benevolence Louise) are ones you’ve never seen before and the wrapping qualities will surprise you
• These new collection slings are not loomstate so they have been steam finished so minimal or no breaking is needed to get these wraps off to a floppy handle.
• This time, we have used a luxurious grade of ethically sourced British wool called Extra fine worsted merino wool. Worsted-spun yarns, used to create worsted fabric, are spun from fibres that have been combed, to ensure that the fibres all run the same direction, butt-end to tip, and remain parallel. A short draw is used in spinning worsted fibres (as opposed to a long draw).

As with most of our luxurious woven wraps, this current collection is a limited edition treat for our customers. Woven  and finished in Yorkshire by one of the best British weavers of our time. We intend to sell this current collection via our website shop.
We also have some limited edition blankets and we will releases those after the slings have been released.
Each sling will be available on our website next Saturday 18.00PM GMT
Finally, please meet our first woven sling releases for 2019

Trillusion Kaitlyn:
Design: The design takes the simple triangle and transforms it into a complex visual art with the repetition of the triangles across the wrap to generate an interesting moving illusion. The symmetrical relationship between the self-replicating triangles echoes the beauty of mathematical measurements that allow for the triangles to be recreated with such accuracy on the wrap.
