Hemp t-shirt, link stitch: dyeing processes and color variations

link stitch knitting leads to an absorption of the colored pigment with different intensities depending on the exposure of the thread on the knot. The result is a pattern with a graduated, shaded color that moves on the fabric. The link stitch hemp t-shirt is available in the two Prototipo Studio variants, in addition to the natural color of the fiber between cream and straw: mud green and dark grey.
