How you ask? Fabienne aka fbz is a hardcore hand-knitter and mathematician who combined two of her passions into “provably unique” scarves and knits. Using an elementary cellular automaton algorithm, fbz creates truly one-of-a-kind knit scarves that feature a non-repeating pattern. Each scarf is neutral and matches with any outfit, yet still strong enough to be a statement piece.

Each scarf is made in a high quality merino wool that doesn’t pill, fuzz, or wrinkle and is sourced from the USA. To maintain the precise detail of each pattern, all the knitting and finishing is done by machine.
