‘Ruth Cross’ was started in November 2004. The company aims to provide unique pieces for an increasing number of people whose interests lie in pure design, rather than homogonous trends.
‘Ruth Cross’ products are highly unusual and desirable, inspired by traditional methods in a contemporary context. By re- thinking the process of hand-knitting they have created a collection of work from garments & accessories, to homeware and bespoke one off projects and lighting.These conjure a feeling of history, yet their simple silhouettes are unmistakably modern. Inspiration is drawn from organic forms, which are translated into sharp and striking pieces. Their allure lies in the detail, the quality of the materials and the knowledge of how much care has gone into making them. Each piece is hand- crafted from knitting to finishing, using British knitters and the finest lambs- wool and Cotton from Scotland and England (the company is committed to supporting British industry and small businesses). This process takes about a month from beginning to end per garment, which results in only a limited number of each style ever being produced.
‘Ruth Cross’ fulfils the desire for the special, reflecting the current cultural shift towards life quality and the value of the individual, over global branding and commerce.
