i've never been keen on learning to knit, but seeing pip-squeak chapeau etc.'s exquisite and adorable collection at the brooklyn designs show a couple of months ago got me thinking it might be the perfect winter 2008 activity...
but it will be a long, long...long time before i can create hats and shawls and scarves of a quality to match theirs, so i might have to invest in a few items.
i heard there's a sale on some of their spring items, through august 10. i might wait til the fall, but swoon away at the full collection here, or at a store near you...
be warned: it may lead to winter longings...
the news about the sale had me remembering the fun day i had with teresa, zovig, and a "man called mate." reminisce a bit with me here.

links to favorites from the show:
the corian and walnut table by françois chambard, of UM.
i also fell a little bit in love with the gentleman/designer, colgate, also of UM. i'm guessing he designed these colgate chairs. i could have chatted with him all day...
the osomoto gateway table …beautiful wood top.
the constellation dining table by palo samko . walnut slabs, with watch gears that make up the “constellation.” stunning.
and
lola’s lounge chair from laidman fabrication.
