some observations tuesday 08.23.2005

saturday i went with jg to the beach house on state street. while he lusted after long boards, i checked out the knit goods. i found two notable items.



rebels knitted boots


i didn't know what to make of them. i was attracted enough to study them but repulsed enough not to try them on. very conflicted.



brioche stitch


i was curious if they're hand knitted but i couldn't find any explanation on the boots or the box.

i'm attracted to the colors of this next item.



stussy 100% merino wool $75


i would have bought it if the stripes didn't differ from top to bottom. i love both styles, just not on the same sweater. a very fine piece of knitwear otherwise.

oh, they have the same boots through anthropologie & I am also torn on them. Plus i have seen crocheted boots of the same design. I have come to realize i am more interested in trying to make a pair than actually owning a pair to wear. Don't put it past me to wear them with a skirt though!

i feel your ambivalence about those boots although i would fall on the side of "what the f***?" maybe if they were in a different color...

hmmm, knitted boots. interesting yet odd. i think we're all just fascinated with the idea of knitting footwear. have you seen the knitted clogs at Nordstroms? they have cabling

I'm sure the boots are simply sewn together out of knit fabric... did you see how much they were?

DO YOU SELL THESE KNITTED BOOTS IN A VARIETY OF COLORS?
