KNITWEAR LAB

KNITWEAR LAB Innovative, sustainable and design-driven knitwear solutions. KNITWEAR LAB develops smart technological applications for knitwear.

At our LAB in Almere - the Netherlands, our team of programmers and designers develops prototypes and run small productions. Our main production inquiries will be handled through our production LAB in Istanbul, Turkey, which is specialized in producing high-end knitwear in small quantities. Our production team of experienced professionals uses their exceptional craftsmanship to create high-end kni

twear. Our knitwear specialists combine material research with latest knitwear technologies, which results in development of smart knitwear solutions. A combination of technological innovation and a design-driven perspective is what makes KNITWEAR LAB truly unique. Sustainable Projects – We have a progressive vision on sustainability. At KNITWEAR LAB we are constantly developing ethical knitwear, that can be made from biodegradable materials, regenerated and certified yarns, or just very beautiful long-lasting materials. Moreover, we make an emphasis on zero-waste production methods. With use of 3D knitting techniques, we are capable of knitting designs entirely out of one piece, without any waste. It is our responsibility to educate our clients on the impact their production has on our ecosystem. Virtual Knitting – Virtual Knitting by KNITWEAR LAB is a revolutionary method of industrial knitwear development: a connection between virtual and material (physical) knitting, which creates a whole new world for sustainable, cost-efficient and design-driven sample development and knitwear production. Virtual Knitting assists the customers in improving the designs on an early stage to create producible and realistic collections, simplify the design iteration process and to show multiple real life colourways. With use of KNITWEAR LAB’s extensive knitwear knowledge combined with the latest 3D software and Stoll Create Plus, a massive waste from the sample and pre-production stages can be reduced. Over the past years KNITWEAR LAB has developed a diverse portfolio with groundbreaking projects. From medical applications like compression stockings to technologically advanced sportswear, and from smart textiles with sensors to renewed yarns from recycled waste: our projects operate at the forefront of innovation! We would love to bring your vision to live. Feel free to reach out if you are interested in collaborating with us!

A contemporary bridal story told through knit structure.
This collaboration with brought together creative direction, technical knit development and a shared love for refined design. The collection was developed as a non-seasonal bridal and occasionwear
statement, with pieces that balance softness, structure and a contemporary feel.

Every piece was developed with precision, allowing texture and silhouette to work in harmony.

We’re so proud to have contributed to this beautiful bridal story: a beautiful meeting of design, technique and identity.

Where knit technique becomes bridal elegance. In collaboration with , KNITWEAR LAB developed knitted pieces that bring a modern touch to
bridal and occasionwear, inspired by the sea and its natural forms. From coral-inspired pointelle effects to draped rib gowns, ottoman panels combined with single jersey, and pleated cape construction, each style was engineered to bring softness, depth and architectural clarity to bridalwear.

The result is a collection that balances technical knit development with a distinctly feminine and modern
design language.

A refined bridal collaboration shaped by structure, texture and timeless elegance.

For , KNITWEAR LAB developed bespoke bridal knitwear from the yarn up, translating the collection’s ocean-inspired vision into elevated knitted forms. Coral set structures, draped rib constructions, single jersey, ottoman textures and integrated pleating lines come together in a collection that feels both technically precise and softly romantic.

Each piece was carefully considered to express movement, lightness and individuality, while maintaining a modern bridal silhouette. A beautiful dialogue between knit craftsmanship and contemporary occasionwear.

A beautiful meeting of design, technique and identity.

KNITWEAR LAB X THIJS VERHAAR
“Every stitch holds a story of craft, geometry and design.”
With over 30 years of hands-on experience in industrial knitting, designs graphic knitwear that balances precision with softness. Every piece is developed from fibre to finish in our own Knitwear Lab, where stitch, colour and geometry come together in a
warm, tactile embrace.

A highlight of the collection: SCARF LUMINA
Lumina explores light and rhythm through carefully placed geometric patterns. The sharp visual structure
contrasts with the softness of the knit, creating a scarf that feels refined, warm and expressive. Knitted in
extra-fine Italian merino wool, made to last.

Where it all begins to create the perfect SKARV.

Together with , we explored different knit weights and colour intensity, starting with fine knits and gradually moving toward thicker structures. The result is vibrant scarves crafted using jacquard knitting, allowing rich colour play and precise patterns.

Made from 100% merino wool, chosen for its durability, softness, and sustainability. One material, endless
wear. Designed to last a lifetime, using mono material only for easier recycling.

This is knitwear with intention.
