Sustainable Fashion for Spring
Feb 29th 2024
Jacque and Sarah are wearing handknit sweaters paired with Menique Sophia Midi Skirts, shown here in Faded Rose and Stone Green.
How do you style your handknit sweaters? You may not know, but we're not just your favorite yarn shop - we also offer a curated selection of clothing with a focus on timeless styles and wearable art. We pride ourselves on using high quality natural fibers in our knitting, and figure why should our wardrobes be any different?
Lately we've been expanding our shop's selection of 100% linen clothing from Menique. We find that wearing linen is comfortable and breathable, with the added benefit of being durable and long-lasting (that means it's a great investment for your wardrobe!). It's also versatile and can be dressed up or down for any occasion - we love the relaxed and effortless look and find that the natural wrinkles give it a laid-back charm.
Most importantly, linen is a sustainable and eco-friendly fabric. It's made from the flax plant, which requires less water and pesticides to grow compared to other materials. Menique sources only organic OEKO-TEX certified linen and focuses on producing timeless designs that stay in your daily rotation season after season.
Whether you are planning a casual night out, a trip to the beach, or are simply on the hunt for a comfortable, stylish item to wear at work... the Eliza dress is essential. This light, airy linen midi dress has all of the features you could want, including a flattering round neckline, a flowy hem, and pockets (yes, pockets!). We love this piece year-round - you can layer it with leggings and a handknit cardigan in the winter, or style it with your favorite handknit lace shawl and sandals for warm summer evenings.
The Sandy Top by Yala combines the length of a tunic with the casual comfort of a tee. Shown here in Black and French Blue.
Another clothing brand worth noting is YALA, a women-owned small business that produces incredibly soft bamboo clothing and happens to be based right here in Southern Oregon. We absolutely love their buttery soft fabrics and consider their leggings and tops to be essential wardrobe staples.
YALA focusses on premium quality as well as environmental sustainability and aspires to elevate the lives of everyone enjoying their products. We're proud to stock seasonal pieces from this local company, and hope you enjoy the stylish, comfortable additions to your closet as much as we do!
