unveiled

ori ami knits

I felt like I've waited so long to announce this but I'm super excited to share with you. For the past 6 months I have been working on a new book project - Ori Ami Knits with Olga Buraya-Kefelian also known as her blog Olgajazzy . With the help and encouragement from friends and family, our website went live early this month. Ori Ami Knits consists of 15 designs knit entirely out of Habu Textile fibers. To read more about our creative process and information about the upcoming publication, come check out our blog.

There's still lots to do with our new adventure but I hope to come back and post on a regular basis. On another exciting news, I'll be flying out to east coast for a special event at Fibre Space, a yarn shop in Alexandria, VA. Danielle the owner is hosting an exclusive book preview on Thursday, November 5 from 6-9pm. This will be the first exclusive opportunity to preview all designs from the book. If you are in the area come see us and try on the garments as well as enjoy our company and delicious treats!

That's so exciting! The cover looks gorgeous--I can't wait to see what's inside.

(And, um, if you wanted to send me a review copy, I'd be delighted to write a review for it, too. Just sayin')

Wow. I keep falling in love with the yarns from Habu, but I have the darnedest time figuring out what to make with them. This will be a godsend!
