Laumes Sweater - Black

Based between New York and Lithuania, THE KNOTTY ONES is a sustainable knitwear label founded by three best friends who set out to create the perfect knit. One that is sustainable, has a contemporary feel, empowers women making them, but also doesn't break the bank.

This knit is named "Laumės" after the very oldest goddesses of Lithuanian mythology. They were believed to be faery seducers of men and protectors of women. These beautiful fairies descended from sky to earth and lived in dewy fields or dense forests, near rivers, swamps and lakes. They'd gather at night under new moon — dancing in circles — to call the rain and create thunder storms, and were considered guardians of nature. They often appeared naked or wearing fine airy clothing.
