knitted 'jumper' chair

These 'Jumper' chairs look so comfy and is upholstered with a knitted woolen created by Bertjan Pot for the British brand Established & Sons.

'Jumper' is a chair upholstered with a knitted woolen cover. The cover was knitted on a special machine that knitted the whole piece in one go. Normally a knitted woolen cover would not make it trough an abrasion test very well, but because we felted the cover by washing it at a high temperature the textile became very dense and durable.
