A few months ago Albam teamed up with Nottingham Trent University to take part in the The Campaign for Wool competition. Students were given the brief to design a piece of knitwear for Albam's AW13 collection, with the winning design making it into production.
The winning design, which Albam selected themselves was by 1st year Knitwear Design student Jessie Roselyn and has been made in two colour options. The design itself is made from 100% Lambswool, features both Honeycomb and Fisherman's Diamond stitch, ribbed hems and is finished off with a Corozo button placket. As with many of Albam's garments this design has been Made in England, just up the road from their studio in Notts.
A massive well done to Jessie Roselyn, she must be very proud to see her designs in such a prestigious brand. Very cool indeed.
