ARIADNE (OF THE SEA) Blanket

Description from MAria Sigma

MADE TO ORDER | LIMITED EDITION | BESPOKE

A handwoven blanket/throw made with natural undyed pure new British wool in natural shades of white and grey with hand-crocheted Aegean-blue edges, in a textured weaving-lace diamond pattern, which combines the Cycladic minimalism with the purity of the British landscape.

Handwoven, hand-stitched, and hand-brushed. Made with love and sustainability from yarn to cloth to final piece.

Ariadne (of the Sea)  took its name from the Greek Mythology heroine, who, as per Homer’s Odyssey, used a thread to help her lover Theseus escape the Minotaur’s Labyrinth.
In every step of the production the ‘Zero Waste Design’ principle has been followed, aiming to decrease to the minimum yarn waste and unnecessary cuts, carbon footprints, the use of machinery, water and electric energy.
