// INTERVIEW with Francesca Montaldi, founder of EMMElab

Knit Couture with a comfortable & minimalist soul

1.Where do you seek inspiration for your collections?

My inspiration is my need to grow a craft skill, use it as a spiritual exercise. I’ve always felt the need to express myself through a creative process. I start using the yarn to let emotions flow and eventually a new idea has born.

2.Which one is your favourite piece from collection and why?

My favourite piece is the three colour twist headband because it can be worn in many different ways.

3.What is the most rewarding thing as a designer?

Turn an idea into something real.

4.If you weren’t a designer, what would you be?

A florist.

5. Your favourite moment of the day?

That morning sleepiness after the first of many alarms.
