Check out what our friend Anne-Marie did with the yarn leftovers after knitting her own MAHAL PONCHO!
Yes, she did the maths and adapted the pattern to a doll size. Then she realized how cool it would look on a Barbie and she managed to find one dressed in matching Magic Mint! Pretty inspiring.

Really well done!

Aurelie and the gang from Peru

As part of our itinerary for each collection, Peru is always a very important stop for us ! Our knitwear designer Aurelie, from NYC studio, meets the peruvian knitters of Puno and works with them to knit new patterns for collection photos and all ready-to-wear pieces ! Here's a little message from her :

Buenos Dias everybody,

Here are some pictures of the future cotton collection !

It is freezing here... but I really enjoy spending time with the knitters. We teach each other new techniques, we laugh and stress at the same time. I enjoy PERU!

Here are the name of all the knitters who I work with everyday, there are so nice and you should see how skillful they are.. Catalina, Segundina, Graciela, Martina, Pelegrina, Esperenza, Edelmira, Efigenia. All the women in Puno learned how to knit when they were really young. As Elena (the knitters gang's chief) said "All the women in Puno know how to knit, if they don't they don't come from Puno".

I hope everyone is well.

It is hard to breath at 3800m. Am I old?

Bisous à tous

A.
