 On Instagram stories local author and knit designer Andrea Rangel shares outfits that she has made by hand. She recently shared this beauty and since she did it in collaboration with local artists I wanted to share it here. Andrea self drafted the dress in fabric which was handwoven at Wovenwares, a weaving studio in Victoria, and then had it eco printed by local artist Caitlin ffrench. She knit the Docklight pullover in Brooklyn Tweed Shelter. Isn't this the perfect early spring outfit?

 Learn the process of felting with Eszter! She will teach you how to process ( wash and card ) raw Icelandic fiber and where to source it from locally. Learn about the history of felting practices from Mongolia to industrial felting, and complete and take home two samples of a wet felted textile and a sculptural textile object. You will be supplied with felting needles, wool, felting pad, bubble wrap, and a dowel with two ties. We will be using local Icelandic fleece from Tideview Farm. You get to keep and take home all the ingredients above!
