Production Specifics
ERIBÉ has a talented team who are experienced in turning sketches into CAD drawings, specification sheets and samples. For inspiration, they also have a comprehensive archive where you can discover knitting techniques. The wool that they work with includes Superfine Mohair spun in Britain and Italy, Alpaca, Silk and Angora spun in Italy and Lambswool and Merino spun in Scotland. ERIBÉ predominantly work with hand knitting but they do have industrial knitting machines with 2.5 - 12 gauge used for sampling. ERIBÉ have a network of hand knitters working out in the local communities. Due to the nature of the knitting process there are many variables that cannot be anticipated until first sampling. Minimum quantities depend on production method used.
