The Interlachen Blanket is a sewing pattern screen printed on a surplus wool blend army blanket. The garments are designed by fashion designer Danielle Everine. She has designed a beautiful and timeless set of outerwear. On one side of the blanket there is a pattern for a Parka, a hooded pull-over jacket and on the other is a pattern for a pair of Bibs, high-wasted pants with built in suspenders.
The pattern is screen printed, by hand, onto each side of the blanket, this does away with the need for paper patterns making the process much easier than other sewing projects. The pattern from the reverse side becomes a subtle geometric pattern on the garment you choose to make.
This is a great project for anyone who enjoys DIY. I am total novice to sewing and started with the Mitten pattern the smaller project. I was able to construct totally functional and warm mittens in about a half hour (without Danielle's help).
We are participants and supporters of the Maker Movement, encouraging all things DIY! The Interlachen line is intended to inspire people to make their own warm clothes and get outside to enjoy frozen nature. A project that can be shared with others - for cold weather enthusiasts, stylish men + women in winter climates, and anyone seeking adventure. If you are not yet the type that is fond of enduring the snow, the wool can be used as a blanket knowing that someday you can sew it up. Please support us, as we want to continue to work as independent designers making things here in the USA!
Inside the roll there are thread + needle to hand sew the patterns as well as suspenders and D rings.We will make some instructions that will come with the product and be available online.
These are real surplus army blankets with various origins.We recommend you launder them before wearing. Due to the large volume, it is not feasible for us to wash them ourselves so we will provide detailed washing instructions.
Why Interlachen? Well first because we just stayed in Interlaken Switzerland and loved it. We are from Minnesota, land of 10,000 lakes so we thought “between lakes,” the translation fit so well. Also you kind of inter – lacken – it together right?
Special Thanks to our Friends: Rachel Roff for filming, Nicholas for Modeling, Michael for use of Mend Provisions, a great store!
リスクと課題
Getting them to you on time is the challenge but everything about this project is well within our wheelhouse. We have the screen frames made (having them professionally stretched), the space to print, the materials and packaging sourced. The Jiggernaut my first Kickstarter was a wonderfully successful and has given me the skills and confidence that we can get you your product on time. As soon as we reach the threshold we will purchase everything we need and get to work!
