HOW IT'S MADE

From a Himalayan goat's winter coat to the sweater in your hands — every step, in our own workshop.

Inside Our Workshop

It Begins With the Fibre

High in Upper Mustang, the Chyangra goat grows a fine undercoat to survive winters that reach −40°C. Each spring it is gently combed out by hand — never sheared — and only the finest fibres, around 16 microns, are kept for Lumusae.

Linked by Hand, Stitch by Stitch

In our Kathmandu workshop, every panel is knit and then linked by hand — an artisan guiding the knit onto the linking machine one stitch at a time. It is slow, skilled work, and it is why our seams sit soft and flat against the skin.

Held to the Light

Before a piece leaves us, it is held up to the daylight and checked — the weave read for evenness, the finish for any flaw. Only then is it folded, wrapped, and sent to you with its Certificate of Authenticity.
