Getting to work on the new designs in Peru.
Sandra is out in Peru now, with her (and your!) ideas for the new season.
It is always an exciting time - seeing how the ideas and sketches translate into the actual clothes.
Here are a few pictures showing the work starting now on the new designs for the Autumn:
You can see the main steps after we have the basic idea for the new design:
first produce a prototype of the new design, and refine it for colours and layout
then the jumpers and cardigans are knitted on a machine
and finally the embroiderers go to work sewing on the applications.
