I just love to take risks.
That's why Lord von Schmitt makes garments out of recycled vintage afghan blankets--because nothing is more outrageous at a party than a guy wearing his grandmother's crochet. Wild, zany, colorful, nothing catches the eye quite like a freak in fiber art.
While many describe my work using four letter words and the ubiquitous "just because you can crochet it, doesn't mean your should," my clothing continues to delight the summer festival crowd, and bring a smile to the faces of even the most sour party-poopers.
Stretchy, comfortable and great to dance in, crochet is the perfect fabric for summer fun. In a world where everything has been done before, recycled crochet is still new, fresh, and full of psychedelic possibilities. Don't believe me??? Just try wearing it to a party. But beware: you might spend the whole time telling everyone they're not hallucinating.
