This fall, fashion label Smythe will be selling a 100-mile blazer. Here is the journey from sheep to shop
The jacket’s rich blue recalls traditional Japanese indigo, the hue that captured Smythe’s imagination. To achieve this effect, Toronto artist Liam Blackburn of Iron Cauldron Colour Works worked closely on sampling wool with Livingston-Lowe and had the freedom to experiment. Tests involved dyeing just a few grams at a time, to get a sense of colour tones on natural cream-coloured Norbouillet yarn. “It has a certain degree of natural lustre, which is uncommon for wool,” he says. “I knew going in if I ended up using just one single dye at a certain percentage, it would look really flat,” Blackburn explains of the decision that the finished cloth would be a two-tone weave, with one shade of blue in the weft and another darker shade in the warp.
