We have always been so proud to stock Lapuan Kankurit products in our store, but our recent trip to the mill in Lapua just made us fall in love with their products even more. Totally dedicated to the art of weaving, the environment and supporting Finnish designers from the ground up we just love everything about Lapuan Kankurit!
Maija Fagerlund is a textile designer and lecturer in textile design at Aalto University in Helsinki. She found inspiration for the RAITTI pattern in the weave structures of traditional textiles, which she wanted to reinterpret in a modern fabric.
“Historical and traditional textiles inspire me, and I could spend endless hours studying the materials and structures of textile treasures found in museums and flea markets. RAITTI was born from the idea of creating an industrially producible version of a traditional weft-faced weave—the kind you see in Finnish raanu wall hangings and ripsi rugs.”
RAITTI bedspread contains local Finnsheep wool which is collected by the team at Lapuan Kankurit from local farms within approximately 400 km of Lapua.
