The Relaxed Knit

Posted by Alexis Corry on

I thought it would be appropriate to dive into the blog with the creative history of my first design, the Relaxed Knit. For those of you who may not have been following, shopping, or wearing Lex & Lynne at that time, this sweater goes back years and years. I even have the original sketch + evolution of this style documented with Lex & Lynne product photography below.

I sit back and reflect on the Relaxed Knit with a cup of coffee and the ocean in my distance and realize this mere idea has become a wardrobe staple for so many customers. A boxy-cut with a perfectly cropped body to define the waistline. Cuff the sleeves and neckline or just don't even think about it! We even produced limited editions of the style in Navy and French Blue. 

The idea was simple ~ a natural cotton oversized sweater with endless opportunities for wear. Most importantly, I wanted something versatile. I travel a lot (and frequently), and I needed a go-to look that would be easy and efficient that I could wear all the time. A knit that was durable and would keep me warm but also cool, too. Wearable at all times whether in-flight or on the road, in a major city or on the water. And the Relaxed Knit provided just that. 

When I received the sample, I realized my newfound passion and the Relaxed Knit changed the course of Lex & Lynne for good. At the time, I offered a few sweater lines at my brick-and-mortar and no more than two to three units per style. I carried 360 Sweater, Skull Cashmere, and White + Warren to name a few. Big brand names that, in hindsight, really moved me to explore the creative side of design.

There were eleven Relaxed Knit sweaters made, including my sample. The design process, production, number of units, and investment was a leap for me. Once the product was in-store, interest, try-ons, questions, and purchases quickly became exciting. The Relaxed Knit looked vastly different on each person who tried it. 

I am currently wearing my sweater with a pair of patchwork jeans and sandals, browsing through past and recent photoshoots of the Relaxed Knit. Jotting down notes and words that come to mind. My re-purposed burlap tote bag holds a handful of beads, string, pliers and I plan to make jewelry later. Thinking back on styles and past inspirations is already intimidating! But I am up for the challenge. Enjoy the imagery-inspiration of my Relaxed Knit, a style you’ll see again and again. Thank you for being here, and please leave your comments below!

  • The coronavirus pandemic has phoney universities to swap to distance learning. americorps community service essay argumentative essay thesis statement dental school admission essay service.
    But what is happening now can be named an crisis delivery of content to listeners in isolation . Many the universities and educators themselves were not prepared for the transition to online. According to a 2019 HSE study, University teachers with an academic degree rate their level of proficiency in remote technologies at 3.2 points out of five. One in four people has never used remote video services get in webinars or video conferences in the past three years.
    But professors are not required to own online studying technologies. They were simply not ready for this, although education and its modern methods are the main function of academies. Try to oblige the surgeon to do their work from home. Let him explain to the patient via Skype how to remove his appendicitis. It sounds absurd. Therefore, the resourcefulness with which educators adapt to the remote format is commendable.

    Sometimes it is funny. Colleagues from regional varsities said that some teachers asked to write lectures by hand and send them scans for according.Today, people communicate remotely in real time thanks to modern digital technologies, students can “raise their hands” with one button, they can write with a finger on a tablet as on a blackboard, and they are told: “Please write a handwritten abstract and send the scan.” Or, for example, this case: a physical education teacher asked students to shoot five-minute videos where they show physical exercises. Although remote physical excercises can be more original, for example, you can select of ready-made videos on YouTube, find checklists in the public domain, and teach them to play sports at home, while you can’t go outside anywhere.

    University professors are faced with a lack of guidance and problems in dealing with organizational matters. Someone conduct classes on Skype, some of them -in Zoom, someone only sends tasks to WhatsApp. Some teachers record lessons on a webcam and send them to students. The quality of such materials is minimal, and it is hard to perceive them. At least because the content on YouTube, which students are used to, is shot and edited professionally and the viewer is spoiled by the quality of video materials.
    There are also problems with monitoring attendance. Some professors ask you to put a " + " in the chat, others ask you to turn on Webcams and take screenshots of students. Against the background of all the misunderstandings and difficulties, one element of academic life remains unchanged – assessment. Students don’t get an educational experience on campus, but they will get grades, even formal ones.

    Learning online from home does not have these disadvantages, because it is built on a carefully designed learning process in an electronic information and educational environment. Professors have instructions, manuals, memos,checklists, templates for emails and notifications, and even presentations. Everything is thought out here-from the screen saver before the lesson to the slide with homework.
