The Restart Collection It is time of our internal search, it is a moment of tranquility and isolation from the outside world to seek and achieve internal self-knowledge. We become, in a certain way, a cactus, millenary plant that survives any climate and that is full of thorns. These thorns do not mean hostility, on the contrary, they are a symbol of strong and empowerment. In this internal search, we also need mediators that bring us closer to our purpose, and we come across natural crystals, which grow on terrestrial surfaces or under the sea, absorbing all the good energies from their place of birth and transformation. That is how they become conductors of good energies and insulators of threatening ones that can interrupt our personal growth. This collection takes crystals as the conductors and its main source of inspiration. We are taking from them, their colors, their textures and shapes as a baseline for the creation of our knits. Earth colors like orange, yellow and green and neutrals play an important role since they refer to terrestrial surfaces and deserts, but we will also have touches of lavender and blues that give us gentle contrasts, the same beautiful contrasts we find in natural crystals. This collection has been made with 100% Peruvian raw materials such as Alpaca with blends and Pima Cotton and knitted with hand machine and handmade Peruvian millenary knitting techniques.
