Time Catcher's Loopwheel Knitting Collection
As one of Time Catcher's signature collections, the 'Loopwheeled Tubular Collection' is crafted using the vintage 'Tompkins Upright Rotary Knitting Machine' from the early 20th century. Loopwheel machines are renowned for their slow weaving process, producing only a single meter of fabric every hour, which makes it a costly endeavor. However, the resulting material has a handwoven feel and a stretchy element to it. When worn, it slightly stretches to conform to the body but revert back to its original state after washing. These are qualities and features that modern production techniques cannot replicate.
