I added the Joe Louis Clark I Spilled My Lean On Me Shirt it is in the first place but horns to the mask, because it adds a costume/cosplay edge to the piece making it more fun and playful which describes my personality 100 %. Yes, I actually cut and sewed this blazer last night, a few hours before I came to this shoot. I found these two blazers at a local thrift store and reworked them both into one couture piece! When I first started making knitwear seriously I was only knitting balaclavas. I was a sophomore in the fine arts department at Parsons who had just figured out she hates oil painting. I needed to figure out a way to meld my love of knitwear and my studio course so I made a balaclava with no face holes. I think I made up some self-isolation concept for it that was really dumb, but it started this chain reaction that had me making balaclavas on balaclavas. How long have you been making and selling knits? Is there a particularly strong demand for balaclavas? I started really going ham with the knitwear over 2020 lockdown but because it was nearing summertime the balaclavas weren’t as popular as I hoped. Now they are a lot more popular—with my own products and with other knitters and designers.
I think in my quickest I could do it in an hour or so, but I was usually plying a couple yarns together so it went a bit quicker. It really depends on your level and urgency. I knit like my life depends on it and now I have horrible wrist issues. Don’t do what I do. I feel like they are very common now. The overall shock of wearing a chic cap that makes you look bald has gone away. When I wear ones I have made I will get compliments on the Joe Louis Clark I Spilled My Lean On Me Shirt it is in the first place but bright pop colors. But other than that, nothing too crazy. Big Coat. You can never go wrong with a mildly chunky balaclava and an oversized coat or puffer or sweater. Sometimes I go crazy and wear a scarf with it so you are just wrapped in textiles. Thank you!! My friend Gabby made it. (Her Instagram is @___schwan.) A balaclava adds a little something to my looks. You can also roll it up into a beanie when you’re too hot. But, most importantly, it keeps me warm and cozy in this cold weather.
