Garmology: Knitwear and numbers - With Laurence of Woolkind (#172)

In this episode of Garmology, Nick heads to Edinburgh to meet Laurence, founder of Woolkind—a colourful knitwear brand built on a deceptively simple idea: what if clothing was made exactly how people wanted it, and made to last?

A former accountant, IT specialist, and software executive, Laurence left a successful corporate career during the pandemic to pursue a lifelong obsession with knitting. What emerged is Woolkind, a made-to-order knitwear business where customers choose colours, garments are produced one at a time, and every detail—from the wool source to the sewing thread—is scrutinised with almost obsessive care.
