The pieces that opened the crypt
The hero pieces: the reaper that came off the machine first, the ribcage that made the brand, and the two that people write to us about.
Forty years of wool. Zero years of prints.
Our pieces are produced in an Italian knitwear atelier that has done exactly this, and only this, for forty years. The machines are serious, the hands are older than most goth bands, and every garment is knitted when you order it, not warehoused.
Six ways into the dark
Halloween and Christmas, the Dame, the sweaters, the cardigans and the softer, moonlit end of the wardrobe.
A print cracks in one winter. Yarn does not.
Most goth sweaters are a plastisol print on a cheap sweatshirt: it cracks in a winter and fades in two. Ours is jacquard. The bone-white is yarn, worked into the black wool blend bone by bone. There is nothing on the surface to peel, because there is nothing on the surface.
The gothic heroines
The capsule where the brand stopped making motifs and started making characters.
From the atelier
How wool behaves, what jacquard actually is, and how to keep a heavy knit alive for a decade.
How to wash a wool sweater without ruining it
Cold water, no agitation, dry flat. The three rules that keep a heavyweight knit alive, and the one mistake that kills it in a single cycle.
What is jacquard knit, and why it beats a print
In a jacquard sweater the pattern is not on the fabric, it is the fabric. Here is how it is made and how to spot one in three seconds.
Intarsia, jacquard and fair isle: what the difference really is
Three words used as if they meant the same thing. They describe three different answers to one question: what happens to the yarn you are not using.
Knitted, never printed
Every motif is jacquard worked into the fabric on flat-bed machines. Nothing to crack, nothing to peel.
