Texture... a trend for Fall/Winter 14/15 Pitti Filati

One yarn display

Ciao!
I just finished two days at the Pitti Filati, which is a trend show for yarns that takes place in Florence Italy, twice a year.

If I had to pick one statement to make, regarding trends, it would be TEXTURE. The yarns are textured, the stitch patterns are textured, and the garments are textured.

Here are a few samples of different ways texture was created in the knit fabrics themselves.

embroidery of sorts, and texture stitches
