DelCia: Hellebore Cotton Sweater

„Delčia“ means „half-moon“ in Lithuanian and her half-and-half stitching was inspired by our Baltic pagan roots and the changing cycles of the moon. In pagan culture, people are big believers in the moon’s energy and staying in touch with it. Delčia finds that perfect balance between the two extremes of the young moon and the full moon.
100% Fair Trade cotton.
STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®.
Store folded. Dry clean or hand wash in cold water. Dry flat.
We don’t believe in deadstock. All of our Delčia knits are produced in small batches at our our female-lead, female-run partner factory in Lithuania, overseen by Mrs Zina.
For this knit we oppted for 100% natural yarn, with no microplastics and no harmful or irritant chemicals used. It is also OEKO-TEX® certified, which means it’s safe from an ecological point of view and don’t release any harmful substances.
The best part? You’ll get a card with your order telling you exactly who knitted your garment and a little about them.
For this knit we partnered up with a family-run knitwear factory in Šiauliai, a small town in Northern Lithuania. The owner of the factory is Mrs. Zina who founded the company over 30 years ago. Growing up she always dreamt of becoming an orchestra conductor, but running a factory as beautifully as she does might not be that far off. Today Mrs. Zina employs over 20 women from the local community who all refer to her as a mother figure. All her employees earn a living wage and are entitled to 4 weeks of annual paid leave, 24 months of paid maternity leave and paid sick leave.
