my friend cal is the designer of hodge podge; an ever-evolving collection of very labor-intensive and special, anti-mass produced clothing and accessories. she’s also well-known among new york crafters as a crochet and sewing teacher. we met about 8 years ago, when i took a beginner’s crochet class from her.

cal has a new label called hodge podge cottage, which will consist of her best selling items, and will be produced in a handful of multiples (versus all one-of-a-kind). items from both her cottage line and her one-off line can be purchased in her etsy shop. i have two of her wraps and i love them!
