Peak-a-Boo

It’s always nice to catch up with an old friend and share news from when we last met. So, it was wonderful to hear from our Danish and Swedish ambassador Kristine Dalgaard who heads Peak a Boo. She certainly has been busy!

While lockdown has caused so much disruption to the industry, Kristine has been finding alternative ways to keep her brand and the virtues of digital fabric printing running.

She has sent us some wonderful photographs of the exhibitions and displays she has taken part in that we thought you might like to share in.

Our styles are meant to be relaxed luxury in a timeless design to treasure and keep for a long time. ‘Slowfashion’ is a lifestyle!

If you are planning a visit to Copenhagen, be sure to call in at the Frederiksberg showroom. 

Here you can discover a wide range of digitally printed silk garments created by Kristine Dalaard.

Printing Scarves

Shrinkage

The processes involved in digital textile printing causes the original fabric to shrink. If you are printing scarves, the size of the finished product will be important to you. For example, if you have square artwork, you will be expecting your finished scarf to be square!

To get the printed fabric closer to the size you need, all fabric intended for scarves must go through an extra step to reshape it. Please allow extra time on your deadlines to allow for this process. 

Let us introduce you to the …

Stenter

The stenter is an enormous piece of machinery that has many uses, including coating our fabrics and reshaping scarf orders.

After travelling through a solution to soften the fabric, it then passes over a flat bed, gripped on the selvedge edges to pull it back into shape. 

It’s a long and precise process that needs to be carefully monitored.

Shrinkage Disclaimer

If you have selected to use our hemming service, we will check the stentered fabric for you before we begin to finish your scarves. If you are not using our service, it’s up to you to check the size BEFORE you cut out the individual scarves from the fabric length. We cannot re-size after your scarves have been cut out.
