London based ethical and eco-friendly knitware manufacturer producing small quantities of high-quality knitwear.

ECO-FRIENDLY

We use yarns produced from farms who have high standards of land management and animal welfare.

SUPPORTING CREATIVITY

With no minimum quantities, we help designers deliver unique garments for their business.

LOCAL MANUFACTURE

LOCAL MANUFACTURE

We knit locally in London on a 7 gauge knitting machine from Kniterate using digital knitting software to rapidly bring your designs to life.

TRACEABILITY

TRACEABILITY

We only work with yarn suppliers that can guarantee the origin, traceability and full compliance to standards for Textile and Health.

MISSION

EcoKnitware was founded in 2019 with a simple mission:  to manufacture small quantities of high-quality knitwear using sustainable and traceable yarns whilst reducing our eco-footprint by knitting locally in the UK.

VISION

Our vision is to continue to reduce our eco-footprint and, by working with farmers, spinners and dyers in the UK, create a locally produced yarn that matches the quality and feel of yarns sourced from abroad yet at a significantly reduced eco-footprint.

YARN

YARN

Yarn is sourced from reputable suppliers in both the UK and Italy.

Where possible we use British wool which is then processed, dyed and spun locally.

ABOUT US


At EcoKnitware, we know that the environmental choices we make can make a difference to our planet.  We believe that by working in partnership with our clients we can bring their vision to life in the most sustainable way.  Our goal is that by working with eco-conscious companies we can jointly start to change the way people think about sustainable fashion.
