Voorskoot Vygie – Maan Straal | Frances v.H.

The colours and forms of the aprons from the FVH x LM Voorskoot Vygies collection refer to the vygie, a Karoo-centric succulent that, when the rains finally arrive, transforms the arid earth into a fleeting carpet of purple, orange and almost unreal greens.
All aprons are unique. They are made to be worn, with a belt or band over your trousers or skirt, but they are just as much textile works that look beautiful on the wall. They do not only refer to the colours of the Karoo; they are handwoven landscapes in themselves.

Material: this collection plays with a wide range of mohair yarns (some hand-spun, some industrially spun in South Africa) to showcase how when you understand your materials you can paint with yarns to create different feels and forms.

Dimensions: 97 × 51 cm

Care: keep out of direct sunlight, as too much sun can cause the colours to fade over time.
If you spill, bolt the area straight away with a clean, dry cloth. If there's still a mark, gently dab the area with a cloth dipped in cool water and a little Woolite.
You shouldn't need to wash this piece, but if it does need a clean, hand-wash in lukewarm water and add a gentle wool or delicate detergent. Let it soak for about 10–15 minutes, gently pressing the water through the fibres with your hands. Rinse well with cool water until all the soap is gone. Don't wring or twist it, as this can damage the fibres. Instead, roll it up in a clean towel to remove the extra water, then lay it flat on a dry towel or drying rack and leave it to air dry. Keep it away from direct heat and sunlight while it dries.
