Indigo Yarn is the world's first dyed yarn
created and manufactured for use in the knitting trade.
It is only with Indigo yarn that comfortable casual sportswear
and chunky knitwear is endowed with the attractive and subtly
alive qualities of indigo blue denim jeans. An indigo sweatshirt
will improve with age and a cool cotton sweater will fade and
gain character with wearing and washing and
more wearing.
Indigo
is dyed as a rope, the selfsame dyeing method of the best quality
denim yarns, and then by a unique series of processes these yarns
are obtained on cone ready for knitting. It is only by these means
that indigo denim yarn, with its characteristics white core and
pure blue coating of dye, has been made available for so many
novel uses. Apart for sportswear and sweaters INDIGO makes it
possible to trim indigo denim garments in many ways: whit knitted
collars, elasticised ribbing, draw-cords, bindings, webbings,
zips and even indigo dyed sewing threads, all of which will fade,
bleach, stone wash or enzyme wash to match the rest of the denim
garment.
INDIGO now makes it possible to bridge the gap between jeans and
active sportswear with what is now the alternative denim putting
a new interpretation on the most universal items of clothing in
the combination of well-worn jeans and the ever practical sweatshirt
or sweater, all in indigo blue.
