Kiln Pleat Pair

Kiln Pleat is a meeting of techniques. The sheened linen top and wide leg pant are cut from the same cloth, each lined for a considered finish.The top carries two kinds of making - fine knife pleats pressed flat across the yoke and cording worked through the lower body in contrast black thread, a raised texture that catches the light quietly. The pant holds a single knife pleat that opens at the hem, and into the fabric sit small collets of handmade blue pottery, each one a reminder that this garment was made by hand, carefully and with intention.
