I promised you this post last week, but my exams got in the way! Now that I finally have some time for a blog post again, I am excited to tell you about the Callous Crow<\/a> t-shirts.<\/div>\n

\u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Now, while you don\u2019t really see me in t-shirts on my page or blog, or Instagram (shameless self-promotion here), I own a pretty big collection of them, as they are my go-to hiking gear and favourite thing to wear with a pair of vintage style jeans.\u00a0 Most of them are silkscreen t-shirts ranging from band shirts to (and these are in the majority), nerdy and geeky t-shirts, but I can say that I\u2019ve never ever had a t-shirt like one from Callous Crow.<\/div>\n

While most t-shirt manufacturers use silk screen printing, Callous crow uses a different, and very very interesting process. The print is done using Lino block printing instead of the usual screen printing, giving the shirts a truly unique look. I\u2019ve been around silk screen printing, and\u00a0 pad printing, even trying my hand out in the latter a bit, but lino block printing was something mostly new to me. I have some vague memories of finding some carved out pieces of lino from my mother\u2019s art classes when I was a child, but I had to go look it up now to get a better idea of what it is, so I can share it with you.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u00a0\"\"<\/div>\n

It involves a bock of linoleum, on which an image is printed or drawn, and then the remaining space is carved out, so the piece you want printed stands out. You then apply ink, press it to the surface, and, if you did everything right, you get a beautiful print. I think you can see how delicate of a process this is!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

I\u2019d swoon over the designs themselves, but at this point, I\u2019d rather let the images speak for themselves!<\/p>\n
