There is something quietly beautiful about a hand-knitted piece in summer.

It doesn’t fight the season, it belongs to it. Organic cotton, open stitches, skin warmed by the sun, and long walks where time slows down.

Seeing Stacie @bookcradle wearing our hand-knitted cotton piece exactly this way reminds me why I started designing in the first place: garments that become part of the landscape, not separate from it.

Made by hand. Worn slowly. Meant to gather memories.

Thank you, Stacy, for making knitwear feel at home beneath the summer trees.🙏🩷 Woman walking in nature wearing a black hand-knitted organic cotton summer top with embroidered floral straps, styled with sunglasses in a lush green park.

Learned so much from my Bookwomen I students

Join us for Bookwomen II starting in August and enrolling now—we will look at medieval themes and practices in early 20th century book cultures with Virginia Woolf, the Hroswitha Club, and others—

This summer I will be participating in another course through Enclosure Academy @enclosedwithin with Stacie Vos of @bookcradle — part of my ongoing interest in close reading, literature, medieval thought, and the lives of women through texts, manuscripts, and historical memory.

I continue to value spaces dedicated to slower forms of inquiry and sustained engagement with ideas across time. Over the past year, these studies have deeply influenced my own thinking around research, artistic practice, atmosphere, and the relationship between text and lived experience.

BOOKWOMEN
Summer 2026

Bookwomen I:
Medieval Women “Lewd, Feeble & Frail”

Tuesdays in June
2 pm CDT
12 pm PST / 3 pm EST / 8 pm BST (UK)

This two-part summer course explores women readers, writers, owners, and makers of books during the medieval period, with an emphasis on England and English translations of texts from other languages.

Figures discussed include both literary and historical women: The Wife of Bath, Margaret Beaufort, Jane Scrope, Juliana Berners, Margery Kempe, Julian of Norwich, Margaret Paston, Hroswitha of Gandersheim, and Christine de Pizan.

Through manuscripts, excerpts, and objects from the medieval world, the course considers what it meant to be a woman reader within a culture shaped by religion, authorship, memory, and social expectation.

A course I am very much looking forward to participating in this summer.
