WHO WE ARE & WHAT WE DO

STRING THEORY is a partnership between two Canadian textile designers, Lysanne Latulippe and Meghan Price. Our scarves and shawls are made from fabrics that we design and produce in low runs with the help of small North American mills. 

STRING THEORY scarves and shawls are distinguished by our exclusive pattern designs and by the look and feel of  long-wearing quality. Knit and woven with yarns such as Peruvian baby alpaca and Italian merino, these fabrics are a pleasure to live in.

DESIGN INSPIRATION

As constructed textile designers, we work with the math and physics of fibres, yarns, knitting and weaving to develop structure, pattern and texture. Consequently, we are inspired by natural and man-made patterns and structures. We are especially drawn to patterns that describe how the world is made and how it falls apart.

The name STRING THEORY is borrowed from a theory of physics that says the world is made of vibrating strings.


THE DESIGNERS

STRING THEORY textiles reflect the expertise of two designers – one specializing in knitting and the other in weaving.
