Bluebird Sweater is a top-down, girl’s pullover sweater with an A-line and split collar detail. The bee stitch collar creates a wide, stretchy neckline. Bluebird was inspired by the oversized sweaters worn by stylish mid-century girls, especially when paired with narrow, cropped pants and ballet flats. This sweater can easily be modified with three-quarter sleeves or to dress length.

This scarf was inspired by the simple beauty of the movement of the lights in the sky caused by the random collisions of particles from the sun with the earth’s atmosphere. Throws of a die were used to recreate this random effect in the design of this scarf.
