Sesia Yarn

Manifattura Sesia has been spinning in Fara Novarese, in Piedmont, since 1963. It began making yarn for the Italian knitwear trade and still does – the range splits in two, the fashion houses on one side and hand knitters like us on the other. The balls came later: the hand-knitting collection arrived in 1970.

And it all happens in Italy. Choosing the fibre, combing, carding and spinning are done at the mill, and the dyeing goes to specialist dye houses in the same district. The fibres run right across the board: wool, silk, cashmere, mohair, alpaca, cotton and linen.

Sesia has a commitment to reconciling innovation and sustainability, from the selection of raw materials with respect for every living being, to the use of production processes with low environmental impact. Fashion must be based on the principles of sustainability, safeguarding the environment and respecting customers.
