Heritage Crafts
AMESH was built around celebrating the Artisanal techniques of the island, which include hand weaving, hand knitting, and crochet patterns. This has been the core of the brand. An intimate collaboration between our craft communities and contemporary design thinking. This partnership enables us to develop one-of-a-kind bespoke textiles. Every textile begins with a thread until it’s passed through multiple hands to create its own identity and unique story. Our work aims to preserve, promote, inspire and revive Sri Lankan heritage craft textiles globally.
Hand Knitting & Crochet
AMESH ARTISANAL knitwear is crafted using deadstock wool and cotton yarns, sourced from local knitting centres in Sri Lanka. These high-quality yarns originate from the Scandinavian region and comply with strict EU standards for harvesting and processing. Because only limited quantities are available for commercial-scale production, our designs are shaped by the materials we can access.
This intentional limitation drives our creativity, allowing us to produce truly one-of-a-kind pieces that reflect the values of slow fashion. Each garment is handmade by skilled, home-based female knitters—empowering them with financial independence and the ability to support their families.
