One based in Leicestershire, England, in the heart of the British textile industry and the other in our family’s home town of Navsari, India. OUR GROWTH Our group’s first factory was established in 1987. Due to the efforts and loyalty of our staff and clients, we were able to build a new factory in India specialising in lightweight cotton and wool knitwear, whilst our UK factory focused on delivering premium and luxury 100% wool range. In 2005 we acquired Paul James Knitwear after identifying a gap in the market for luxury British attire. Paul James’ archive and knitting machinery were relocated from Barwell to Ayelstone in Leicestershire, England. Our desire to foster and build upon existing relationships lead us to source knitwear from Europe. This opportunity arose when one of our technicians relocated back home with his partner after the birth of their first child.

Eldridge proposed the company name be Paul James, using the Christian names of his fellow directors. By 1980 Paul James Limited had outgrown it’s original site, so they acquired a 20,000 sq. ft. factory in Barwell, Leicestershire. They worked with the most prestigious high- street stores, exporting British-made knitwear to the USA. In 1994, HRH Princess Anne presented Paul James Knitwear with an award for Outstanding Export Achievement at a Gala dinner staged in a London hotel. In 1997, HRH Princess Anne visited the Paul James factory in Barwell, Leicestershire. Where she greeted the workforce, and unveiled a plaque tribute mounted on the wall. In 2005, Jack Masters acquired Paul James Knitwear Limited and relocated it’s operations to our knitwear factory miles away in Leicestershire, England. We identified a gap in the market for the growth of luxury British attire. Since then, we as a family have worked to preserve the Paul James legacy and develop it into a modern, desirable collection of quality knitwear and accessories. In 2006, we re-launched Paul James’ wholesale business with a range of timeless classics in modern fits, providing brands with bespoke services from our family owned and operated factories in Leicestershire, England and Navsari, India. 100% CHUNKY MERINO WOOL COLLECTION The Modern Chunky Merino Wool Cable Knit Jumper 100% MERINO WOOL SPUN IN PERU.

It outlines the basis of the approach and insights from the field, and offers a range of initiatives where design can make a positive contribution to traditional production. Traditional maker practices are in steep decline in the UK and internationally; the kinds of knowledge promoted and valued in contemporary society tend to be at odds with those inherent to these kinds of practices. The paper considers the inadequacy of purely theoretical forms of knowledge and demonstrates the importance of values-guided practice, experience, skills, and tacit and situated knowledge.

  • The Voices of Knitting in the Loop 3
    Library The voices of knitting In the loop 3 3 Welcome Welcome to In the loop 3: the voices of knitting. This conference is dedicated to the memory of Richard Rutt who was popularly known as the “knitting bishop”. His seminal book A history of hand knitting remains the key text on this subject. To have acquired his library which is now an integral part of the Knitting Reference Library at Winchester School of Art has been a privilege and professional highlight. I first met Richard and his wife Joan during 1999 when I visited them at their home in Falmouth to discuss the donation of his library. A special feature of his library is the collection of Victorian knitting manuals all of which have been digitised and are available as full texts via the internet. His collection of knitting patterns is particularly strong on menswear so we have taken six boxes as a pilot project to catalogue and digitise depending upon copyright clearance. The keynote speakers for In the loop 3 each bring their distinctive approach to looking at knitting in unexpected ways which I am confident Richard would have enjoyed. Together with all the speakers they are the voices who will cover adornment, exploration, representation, sport and well-being. As we all know knitting is many faceted. It is not for any one single group, is not confined by period or place, there is no one approach to its history or contemporary manifestation. I am sure you will all agree that it may be domestic, cultural, world-wide, an art or craft, historic, industrial, contemporary or futuristic!
