This one-of-a-kind cardigan has been created by London-based fashion designer and artist Bethany Williams for TOAST Renewed, using items from past TOAST collections that have been either damaged or returned to our warehouse. It features a patchworked knit, open elbows and an asymmetric, layered hem.

“I wanted the shape to feel fitted but also layered, and I was particularly interested in rolled hems and the way the layers sit against each other,” says Bethany. “The layers represent the complexity of legacy and the things we leave behind. The artwork is an original painting I created of a still night, where the water mirrors the reflection of traditional Manx fishing boats that my family used to work on, with cows in the field beyond. I worked with Alice Morell Evans, who interpreted the artwork into patchwork knit, using knit from existing garments and samples from previous collections. The pieces are joined together through crochet, creating a garment that feels like it has been built from fragments of different histories.”

Wool, cotton, alpaca and linen. Crochet patchwork. Crew neck. Open elbows. Ribbed cuffs. Layered hem. Front buttons.

This style is part of TOAST Renewed By, our limited-edition collaboration series, which sees garments transformed by guest artists through traditional textile handcrafts, honouring both their past and their potential future.

Mix of fibres: wool, cotton, alpaca, linen. Hand wash.
Made in the United Kingdom.
As this piece has been repaired, extra care should be taken when cleaning. It is also best to avoid jewellery that may catch or snag.

Cotton Care Guide

Cotton is a versatile, comfortable and breathable fabric and is easy to look after. At TOAST, we love cotton for its ability to take dye and retain bright colours and intricate prints.

Obtained from the fibres surrounding the soft seed pods of the cotton plant, cotton is a natural and biodegradable fibre that has been used since antiquity. The fibres are cleaned and spun into threads before being made into a variety of fabrics, from denim and corduroy to poplin and twills.

How to wash

Cotton can be washed at 30 degrees in the machine with similar colours. Try to wash your cotton less frequently to maintain the shape, colour, and quality of your garment.

How to dry & store

Reshape your garment whilst damp by holding the side seams together and shaking. Cotton is best dried flat or hanging to prevent the need for ironing. If an item requires ironing, then it is best to do so whilst slightly damp or using the steam setting.

Hang your cotton clothes away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
