Basic cardigan with chisel brushing

As a knit factory, Yonetomi Seni Co., Ltd. has been working on the technical development of knit textiles since its foundation, and has been working on manufacturing with unparalleled quality in the world. YONETOMI NEW BASIC was launched by such a long-established manufacturer as a knit project to develop basic items that are close to the "new daily life".

Cardigan CIRCLE KNIT is a light and fluffy cardigan. This soft, brushed surface is processed with teasel nuts, which are rare even in Japan. Chisel nuts are the fruits of plants with thick, curved thorns, and by borrowing the power of plants, they contain a layer of air, giving them heat retention and a softer appearance. In addition to processing methods that use plants, recycled wool is used as the material, making it an environmentally friendly piece of clothing.

It has a moderately loose silhouette, so you can wear it inside a little on cold days, and the crew neck cardigan with a tight neck gives a more elegant impression than a V-neck. There are four colors: YELLOW and SAX, which will brighten up your coordination, and calm BORDEAUX and GRAY, which are typical of autumn and winter. It is a cardigan that you will want to wear forever while feeling the careful knitting.

From Yamagata, a knit production area

In Yamanobe Town, Yamagata Prefecture, many farmers raised silkworms, and the government encouraged farming villages to raise sheep as a side business. An industrially developed area. At one time, there were many knitwear manufacturers, but the number of factories decreased as production increased overseas. Under these circumstances, Yonetomi Seni Co., Ltd., founded in 1952, has continued to knit sweaters while honing its advanced knit textile development technology.

Everything from material development to product development and mass production is done consistently at our own factory in Yamanobe-cho.When we hear about new materials, we take the lead in incorporating them, actively working to create new products, and creating good products in a good environment. With the desire to have fun and bright production under the factory, we introduced the first knitting computer and have been developing various textiles on a daily basis. With a total of 43 fully automatic flat knitting machines, we boast the largest production system in Japan and one of the world's leading low-gauge production systems.

The founder repeated trial and error for two years to overturn the established theory that "knitwear can't be worn in summer", and it seems that he openly disclosed the manufacturing method of the summer sweater he created within the production area. The knitting industry, which was limited to winter and could only operate for half a year, is now able to operate all year round, bringing about a major change. Even now, he continues to search for ways to express himself without resting on history and tradition. YONETOMI NEW BASIC is a knit project that pursues basics by making full use of the development technology that such a manufacturer has accumulated over many years. Aiming to "create a unique personality out of commonplace things", we create basics that are close to the "new daily life" by adding clever details and casual arrangements that can only be done by a factory.
