Reviews
A course by Relmü Tejidos
María Jesús Labbé studied costume and textile design. Her love of colors and cultures led her to crochet, which gave her the financial means to travel across Latin America and continue exploring this art form. During her trip through southern Chile, she was mesmerized by a market stall selling natural wool and took that inspiration to create her brand, Relmü Tejidos, the culmination of her journey.
Through Relmü Tejidos, María Jesús promotes sustainable fashion by creating colorful crochet clothing. As her brand grew, María decided to hire four crocheters to meet the demand, launching her project to the next level. Thanks to her new team, she also discovered what is now the essence of Relmü Tejidos—a family of talented women whose work is done out of love for conscious fashion. What began as a simple way to finance her passion for travel has transformed into a network of dedicated women who enrich Relmü Tejidos and its devotion to slow fashion with one-of-a-kind crochet garments.
