I was so happy to drop off this stack of lovely woolies at Juniper on Saturday. Ralph the cat approved.

So much is happening right now, but the most topical thing is that I am about to update the site with some fall styles. The lovely Allyson joined Jules and I one hot summer day a couple of weeks ago for a guerilla-styled photo-shoot.  It was so thrown-together-at-the-last-minute, the location was right outside the studio using the driveways and porches of my accommodating neighbors. Here Allyson is wearing the style “Frances” (named after my sister), in Stevie and Kevin’s driveway.

Vogue Knitting Fall 2011

I am still working on getting images for my fall line but Vogue Knitting sent me this image this morning.

It is a sweater I designed for their Fall 2011 issue – hitting the newsstands August 23rd.

I have sold many designs to Vogue over the years but this is the first time I wrote the pattern and found some-one to knit the proto.

I think the sweater and the image turned out great.
