Knits For Home
Knitted textiles do for a home what they do for a person: add warmth you can feel and see. This collection brings together Jakopina knits for the home — pieces in natural fibres that soften a sofa, a bed or a reading corner, knitted in our family studio in Dvorje near Cerklje na Gorenjskem, Slovenia.
The core of the collection are our blankets for the home in extra-fine merino wool — and for a piece that belongs to one person, a personalised home blanket with initials.
FAQs
Why choose knitted home textiles over woven ones?
Knitted fabric has visible structure — the stitch itself is the pattern — so a knitted blanket adds texture to a room, not just colour. Knits are also stretchier and drape more softly than woven throws, which is what makes them inviting to actually use, not just arrange.
Do wool home textiles suit warm apartments?
Yes — merino wool regulates temperature rather than simply insulating, so a Jakopina merino blanket is comfortable in a heated apartment in winter and on cool evenings in summer. It breathes, which synthetic throws do not.
How do I keep knitted home textiles looking good?
Air them regularly — merino resists dirt and odours, so airing replaces most washing. When needed, wash on a wool cycle at up to 30 °C with a mild wool detergent and dry flat. Stored clean and dry, a wool blanket keeps its shape and colour for years.
What makes a knitted piece a good housewarming gift?
It has no size to guess and no taste risk a neutral colour can't solve — and it is used, not stored. A Jakopina merino blanket, or a personalised home blanket with the household's initials, is a housewarming gift that stays in the living room.
Where are Jakopina home knits made?
Every Jakopina piece for the home is knitted in a family studio in Dvorje near Cerklje na Gorenjskem, Slovenia, in small batches from natural fibres — the same workshop, and the same standards, since 1926.
