Hi N.E.E.T. blog readers – it’s Mallory with some Handmade finds for you.
Every fall when the leaves start changing, I start wanting to add some knit items to my wardrobe. Unfortunately, knitting is not a talent I have been blessed with. I’ve tried, and tried, and tried some more to learn… but to no avail. Thankfully, there are plenty of people out there who can knit – and who can knit well. Below you’ll find some of their creations.

SUNO – Max Osterweis’ fairtrade fashion label draws inspiration from varied sources including late 1960s American interiors and Gustav Klimt, and this season sees the New York brand designing most of the prints themselves, before the pieces are produced in small Kenyan workshops.
All for Everyone by Annie Larson – Minnesotan Annie’s line of knitwear – from the more conventional sweater to leggings and mini skirts – is bags of fun in a rainbow of colors.

Keller NY (Photos by Matt Sundin) – Brooklyn-based designer, Kelly Clark, is back with a collection of wearable looks: cropped leather jackets and tailored trousers in a muted palette of khakis, creams and greys.
Dear Creatures (Photos by Yudi Ela Echevarria) – Inspired by Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys, LA’s Bianca Benitez and Rob Sinclair’s new collection is, as ever, cute and quirky – with tartan minidresses, polka dot pleats and nautical knitwear.
Lily + Jae – Canadian designer, Jude Feller’s line is both functional and fashionable, with camel raincoats, plaid blazers and organic cotton cardigans, all in her subtly patterned signature styles.
Hello, again! It’s Mallory from Where the Lovely Things Are with some handmade fall fashion for you.
The following looks are from Shaina Mote‘s 2010 Autumn/Winter collection. Don’t they make you want to laze about in a park for an afternoon? A nice fall breeze… a good book… something delicious to wear: that sounds pretty perfect to me, especially if I was lucky enough to be wearing the first outfit…
Stay tuned this week for more of N.E.E.T.’s favorite Fall collections!
