Our White and Yellow Crewneck is made using 100% cotton. The body is undyed cotton, while the details are 100% hand-dyed using natural materials. It fits like your favorite vintage crewneck sweatshirt. It was made using a vintage, hand-operated knitting machine in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Details Include:

  • raw, undyed body
  • Onion peel detailing (yellow color)
  • Zero waste knitting machines make panels to size
  • Hand-sewn finish
  • 100% Cotton

Hand wash your item with pH-neutral soap and cool water, then air dry. Our naturally dyed clothing is dyed with plant-based ingredients. They may have a slight, earthy odor and color transfer when new. Please make sure you are conscious of this before making a purchase.

The yarn is dyed by a network of dyers in Argentina. Alexia has been helping us develop dyes and colors for over a year. This yarn is then used in knitting machines by a group of knitters headed by Gloria Ketelhohn in the Greater Buenos Aires area. Hear their stories and see our processes below.
