Artist Designed Blanket - Elula x Lulama Wolf ^Sale

This blanket was designed by Lulama ‘Wolf’ Mlambo, a 27-year-old visual artist who lives and works in Johannesburg, South Africa.

'Elula' translated means “The Easy One” 

“The idea behind the blanket was to bring a sense of ease into ones existence at any time in their life, to implement rest and motivate that life can be simplified with more introspection." - Lulama Wolf

A principle theme in Lulama’s work is space, spirituality and influences from vernacular architecture. She explores the human condition in extremely imaginative ways creating hyper visualized characters.

Washing of Cotton Knitwear

For machine washing, it is recommended to wash alone and not with other items.

In order to keep the fineness and the length of the fibres of the cotton, the blankets should be machine washed on a gentle cycle at 30° maximum, or cold water is recommended. Do not use fabric softener or bleach, and prefer a gentle spin cycle to avoid twisting or deforming.

Drying of Soft Knitwear

In order to keep their shape and fit, all items should be dried flat on a towel in a shaded area.

Do not tumble dry.

Do not hang dry.

Do not dry in direct sunlight.

Ironing

Iron softly on the reverse side. It is also highly recommended to apply a damp cloth between the iron and the garment to protect the fibres.

Other Needs of Soft Cotton

Over time, it is possible that the knit will make snags or pilling in certain areas of friction. For this, there are small devices specially designed for clothing care at knit. To make up for the snags, small hooks, very easy to use, exist to remesh the threads of the items. To remove pilling, anti-pilling razors are very effective and do not damage the sublime and softness of the items.
