The Red Reaper
Our hero piece, and the first to come off the machine. A bone-white grim reaper with a scythe, ribcage picked out in blood red, knitted stitch by stitch into a heavyweight black wool crew-neck beneath the KNITFERATU wordmark in blackletter. Not a print: the reaper is made of yarn, worked into the fabric itself on Italian flat-bed machines with forty years of knitwear behind them. It will never crack, peel or fade. Knitted to order.

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.
