Ariel Knit Wear

princeklassen:

A good friend of mine has officially opened her online store as of this past week. The line, Ariel, combines a Japanese dying technique known as Shibori and hand made fabric all created in her Jamaica Plains home studio.

Having seen some of these scarves in person, I can say they are really beautiful and very laborious to create.

Great for this Fall/Winter season.

To learn a little more about her work + online store, you must learn.

A very good friend of mine… hey wait… ok Klassen, you quick! and i agree!

As the unrivalable DJ Prince Klassen said, these Ariel hand-bound and hand-dyed scarves, wraps, and hats are gorgeous, and some of the softest fabric I have ever touched. The website is still growing, so stop by to view these pieces.
