Effortless Funky Socks For Kids in Crochet with Gathered Sleeves
A Cruise Line approached us to develop a effortless funky socks for kids around a single idea: gathered sleeves, executed in crochet. The capsule was destined for Argentina and needed effortless finishing that reads designer on the rail while staying repeatable in bulk. This case study records the brief, the specification and the delivery.

- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- The sample did not match the runway reference
