Bat Colony

€79.90≈ $88 · charged in EUR
Knitted to order in Italy ✠ free worldwide shipping

A colony of bone-white bats dives down this black crew-neck: scattered at the shoulders, swarming at the hem. Knitted stitch by stitch into the jacquard, each bat is fabric, not ink. Subtle at a distance; at close range, unmistakably the good kind of wrong.

Materials & care

Heavyweight knitted jacquard, made on industrial flat-bed machines and hand-finished. Yarn: 50% wool, 50% acrylic. Depending on size, a finished sweater weighs a proper 450–650 g: this is heavy knitwear, not a printed sweatshirt.

Care: hand wash cold or wool cycle 30°, no tumble dryer (the Count fears it). Never wring it, never hang it: lay it flat on a towel, ease it into shape and let it dry away from direct sun and radiators. Store folded. Treated well, a knitted jacquard outlives every print: there is nothing on the surface to crack or fade.
