    Rowan Morrison Books Process Notes CMYK Memo Books

    Whoa, I haven't blogged since December? Yikes. Well, today's the day to change all that! We've got some new items in the webshop this summer, and I want to tell you about them.

    Process Notes – design inspired 3-pack of memo books – was released last month, and they are super fun! 

  • New Hat Pattern: Persimmon

    The Persimmon beanie is made up entirely of Merino Fingering Weight Yarn – the kind that's plied only twice, making it loftier.
