From the beginning of October 2017 to February 2018 this capsule collection in support of Amiti\u00e9 Partage<\/a> was for sale on the Jacadi website<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This innovative return-to-work programme<\/strong> helps unemployed women get back into work by teaching them to knit under the guidance of an instructor. This helps to restore their confidence in the future and puts them on the path to vocational training or a job.<\/p>\n

Now in its third year the Love Maille initiative is a partnership between <\/strong>Jacadi<\/strong><\/a>, which designed eight timeless babywear patterns for babies aged 3 to 6 months, Phildar<\/strong>, which donated its best quality wool, and ten women trained and supported by Amiti\u00e9 Partage<\/strong><\/a> who knitted this 300-piece collection comprising embroidered sweaters, bootees, hats \u2013 and a miniature sweater for Martin the teddy bear, a Jacadi emblem.<\/p>\n

The knitters can be proud of their creations:<\/strong> the collection was very well received by the brand’s customers and 211 pieces were sold<\/strong> (versus 94 the previous year). Of the more than 5,200 euros donated in 2017 to Amiti\u00e9 Partage, 3,642 euros came from this collection!<\/p>\n

Yet another way for Jacadi to show its commitment to the community \u2013 by helping mums and their children!<\/strong><\/p>\n
