What?

Speaking of a fur coat, it usually means exclusively a fur product made of animal skins: rabbit, lamb, raccoon, mink, sable. Fur coats may look different, but, for the most part, it is still quite traditional. A design idea knows no boundaries, and now on the catwalks appear ... knitted fur coats, quickly gaining recognition and constituting outerwearmade by making from one or several threads using various weaving techniques.

Benefits

  • Originality of appearance - in a correctly chosen knitted coat you will be different from others, attracting pleasant attention to yourself.
  • A variety of models and styles - the creation of a knitted product takes more time than the embroidered one, however, the fur fabric due to its texture and a large number of seams imposes restrictions on the range of the model range.
  • Lightness of the product - in most cases, from whatever yarn your fur coat is knitted, it will still weigh less than a fur coat made of fur skins.
  • Elasticity and plasticity - an integral feature of any knitted fabric.
  • Cost of - fur is more expensive than any yarn, even fur, especially since in the latter case the thread can be made of scraps of skins. This does not mean the use of low-quality raw materials at all, it is just that when cutting skins of even high-end quality, sometimes significant pieces remain, which are used either to create fur coats from pieces of fur or to make fur yarn, which results in a reduction in the cost of the finished product.
  • The possibility of self-production - If sewing a fur coat at home is quite problematic, then it may not be very easy to knit it from finished yarn, but it is very interesting. In addition, in this case, you get the original product by individual measurements.
  • Practicality - a fur coat made of fur panels, sometimes even with a sufficiently careful attitude towards it, can be irreparably damaged due to objective circumstances. Knitted knitwear, including fur, has a non-uniform structure, as a result of which it is not so susceptible to deformation.
  • Increased seasonality of wearing - If in a fur coat from a fur cloth you look rather strange in the spring, then in special cases you can easily put on a knitted coat-coat even on a cool summer evening, which will only emphasize your elegance and elegance.
  • Versatility - Of course, a blackglama or sable fur coat is a status and prestigious thing, but in most cases it's not comme il faut to wear it with jeans. But a knitted fur coat, of the right choice of style and from suitable yarn, can be worn with jeans, with skirts, and with an evening dress.

Models

Models of knitted fur coats are limited only by the imagination of the designer and can be divided into several groups.

By type of yarn:

  • Textile yarn - can be like from artificial fibers (boucle, grass), and from natural (mohair, wool, alpaca). As a rule, this is the so-called textured yarn, imitating various types of fur with high or low pile and created for the manufacture of products manually, independently. The most well-established varieties are Plume Bergere de France (France), Furlana Alize (Turkey), Lion Brand Fun Fur (USA), Katia Estepa (Spain), Mondial Savana (Italy).
  • Fur yarn - used as a finished, and, if desired, can be made independently. Patented as early as the mid-70s of the last century by Canadian designer Paula Lishman, the technique of making such yarn initially assumed the use of beaver skins of large size, from each of which a long continuous thread was cut in a spiral, which was then twisted. To create a canvas, this thread was imposed on a previously prepared cotton mesh base. Subsequently, the process of making fur yarn was improved and modernized, in particular, in our time both solid skins and fur trimming of various types of fur are used. The number of various knitting techniques has also increased, but the basic principle of knitted knitwear remains the same.
