Handmade knitwear Made in Italy: our artisans

Every Lanaioli garment is made in Italy by workshops whose people we know by name: Maria Grazia in Piacenza, Olimpio near Novara and Maria Teresa in Brianza for knitwear, and Luana in the Macerata textile district for accessories. They use only natural and regenerated yarns produced in Italy.

Our artisans

We give space to the creativity and expertise of the artisans who design and make Lanaioli garments, rigorously Made in Italy.

Maria Grazia's workshop, Piacenza

Maria Grazia carries on her parents' tradition. In the 1970s, they founded their knitwear workshop in Piacenza. We chose the reliability and expertise of a partner committed to the quality of artisan-made products, who shares our decision to use only selected yarns.

Only natural yarns produced in Italy

Lanaioli sources the yarns for its garments exclusively from Italian companies and makes its products entirely in Italy:

  • Short-supply-chain merino wool: from Sopravissana sheep in Controra (Norma, LT), washed, carded and spun by Lanatura Filati in Pedemonte (VI). Discover the supply chain.
  • Regenerated cashmere: Re.Verso™ yarn, GRS certified, produced by Filpucci in Campi Bisenzio (FI). Discover how it is made.
  • Other natural yarns: from 2026, in collaboration with Maeko Tessuti in Quaregna Cerreto (BI).

Keeping all production in Italy allows us to choose the highest-quality raw materials and create garments finished down to the smallest detail, thanks to master artisans who work according to procedures refined over time.

Natural yarns, plus regenerated cashmere

The regeneration of raw materials and short-supply-chain merino wool are the themes that set Lanaioli apart: they point the way toward increasingly sustainable production.

Products made with regenerated cashmere reduce the consumption of raw materials and fuel for transport. This also lowers costs and makes cashmere accessible to more people, as with our regenerated cashmere gloves.

High-quality craftsmanship, Made in Italy, natural yarns: the Lanaioli formula

Lanaioli produces artisan Made in Italy knitwear, relying exclusively on Italian artisans to ensure local, sustainable production entirely in Italy.

The careful selection of raw materials and the technical skill of our artisans allow us to produce garments finished in every detail, while reducing the consumption of raw materials and fuel for transport.
