It was amazing to build a book from the ground up with my friend, Alana. We self published Coastal Knits, which was completely possible thanks to our hero and graphic designer Mary Joy Gumayagay. It's amazing to be to this point in the process, and invite you to experience what we've created!
The projects are all up on Ravelry here.
