Join us tomorrow as we continue sharing stories about the genesis of Alabama Chanin’s legacy. This week, the Alabama Chanin 21 Years Celebration highlights 2006 – 2009 during which Natalie relocates Alabama Chanin’s studio to its current location at The Factory, launches an online store at alabamachanin.com, and collaborates with inspiring artists and designers.
This celebration marks Natalie’s legacy in sustainable design and honors our collaborators, team, friends, community, artisans, and those that have inspired Natalie and Alabama Chanin through their work and partnerships over the decades.
Explore the 21 Years Celebration here and find designs symbolic of Natalie’s journey here in the 21 Year Collection.

Find four new painted waffle knit styles in the 21 Year Collection. The 21 Year Painted Waffle Skirt, 21 Year Painted Waffle Sweatshirt, Flora Waffle Skirt, and Flora Waffle Sweatshirt all showcase organic waffle knit that is hand-painted across the front in a layered stencil design.
In addition to the 21 Year Collection, explore a One-of-a-Kind Collection made from zero waste designs. Crafted from organic fabric scraps from our cutting department, each garment is stitched together with unique variations that cannot be recreated.
@ The School of Making
October’s Swatch of the Month highlights the Medium Polka Dot Stencil using the Negative Reverse Appliqué technique with the Feather Stitch. The neutral Sand on Sand color palette in 100% organic medium-weight jersey pairs well with projects created from the Studio Bundle #3.
