Comodo by Nicola Susen
Comodo is an interesting concept: a lightweight jacket designed do be worn open is no new concept, but this cardigan can be knitted in any size and any yarn, though it works much better with lightweight yarns like our Lace or, for midseason wear, Lamora, Luxor, and LanaCashmere. This is made possible thanks to the […]
A very lightweight cardigan
Lanecardate’s star for the summer is Lace, our lightweight and yet warm version of Lamora, designed specifically for knitting shawls and other light accessories. Yet, why not use Lace to create fantastic, flowing, drapey, lightweight cardigans? The Ecuador cardigan, designed by the talented Joji Locatelli, is a clear example of this type of sweater: a […]

Why carded yarns for Lanecardate?
Why do we produce carded (woolen) yarns? This is a peculiarity of ours: despite the fact that in our industrial district the main product are combed or worsted yarns, Lane Cardate has always believed in woolens. Not just wools, cashmere, angora and camel: all of them carded. Carding is a process that, prior to spinning, […]
