Indigo Hand Knit Bolero

There’s something almost magical about how a knit garment takes shape the moment you slip it on—suddenly, a three-dimensional, beautiful form appears. This bolero drapes with ease, its generous silhouette and elegant curves offering a quiet sense of presence.

By carefully pre-dyeing each yarn, we enhance its natural luster, allowing the indigo to reveal a deep, glowing richness. The herringbone pattern, woven with a rhythmic structure reminiscent of panelled fabric, is paired with a finely rendered, traditional Fair Isle design—each element thoughtfully constructed.

Its springy, plush texture carries a warmth unique to hand-knit garments. Each stitch is crafted slowly and gently, with the twist of the yarn adjusted by hand—an embodiment of Japanese craftsmanship. This is a knit that could only come from 45R’s steady commitment to detail and tradition.
