About Possrino® Knitwear
We do specialise -
and delight in - creating garments to order.
Possrino® Knitwear, from Possrino.com has evolved from 40
years of dedicated knitting driven by a passion for design, a love of
yarn texture and its properties.
Sophisticated
techniques have been developed creating an ability to keep up with
constantly changing trends and styles, allowing Possrino® Knitwear to produce high quality garments for
the world.
A period of two
years was dedicated to the development of styles, wearability and care.
This yarn has proven to hold its shape in garments of many styles, is
incredibly light weight, wonderfully warm, and extremely easy to care
for.
Principle Director
and Designer, Doreen Berge has amassed over 40 years experience with a
wide range of various gauge knitting machinery, yarns of all
descriptions, types and thickness, whilst learning about colours,
garment styles, design and structure.
She is constantly
developing knitting techniques and ideas, as fashion-trends, styles and
colours are always changing.
When Possum/Merino
mix yarns became available she was particularly impressed
with their potential, and since 2001 has worked extensively with the
yarn.
Doreen comments on Possrino® garments:
"They have stood up very well to use
and are extremely 'easy care'.
They bulk up with washing and when washed as per the instructions, only
become fluffier and even warmer, and they do not shrink.
They take very little space when packed. Once unpacked, a vigorous
shake is all that's needed to bulk them up again."
Features and
Finish:
Possrino® Garments are all hand crafted and
feature a high standard of finish.
An example of unique attention to detail is shown to the right in the
form of edging applied to scarves and many of the wraps
ponchos and capes. We call it "Snail Trail Edging".
