in the round (felt)

This chair was named after the technique of knitting sleeves or socks “In the Round.” In order to upholster a chair completely with only one knit sleeve, the tubular steel frame had to be formed in one continuous line that closes in a loop. Careful attention was paid to the seat so that enough surface area would ensure comfort. Over fifty feet, or fifteen meters, of wool sleeve is required since the felting process causes substantial shrinkage. The chair is available in either solid colours or in stripes. The striped felt makes each chair unique.
