Oh hi New Year! Here at elk & forrest we are pretty stoked about twenty thirteen. We have some BIG plans. A workshop is at the top of the list as well as a big move to hang with the pro-dogs in Chamonix. Being in Chamonix for the foreseeable future (until we figure out a way to get to Revelstoke!!) is going to completely change our lives and we hope it helps elk & forrest to grow too.

Plans are being made for our spring products. We are super excited to show them to you but seeing as though winter is in full swing we won't depress you with thoughts of melting snow just yet!

In fabric related news we have some rad shit to sew up and a little woolly surprise that we have had ready to launch for AGES!! So in preparation for that we are flogging our 2012 collection with MASSIVE discounts. Seriously... if you buy now you will look steezy as and have money left over for a few apres PBR's! So go and have a peep at our SALE, you won't be disappointed!

Happy FREAKING New Year kids!!!

The week before Christmas Forrest and I had our friends, Ferg, Spence, Cox and Frase to stay. The snow was EPIC, the riding was IMMENSE and the good times were non-stop. 

Our local resort hadn't yet spun it's chairs so every morning we packed up the van for a road trip to what may be the best week of the season. Yes I am bigging it up, but December, you have set the bar HIGH!

I had done previous seasons with Ferg, Spence and Cox in Utah, where the snow is notoriously light and plentiful. Spence, a New Yorker gone Scandi living it up in Uppsala. Sweden didn't have high hopes for early season in the French alps but he said, and I quote "this is some of the best riding I have ever had"

Forrest had bought me some uber fatties for powder days and I was sure they would be in the garage for most of the season. It felt so good to get on them so early and float on the snow. The lines were fast and fresh, MAD fresh and even though the boys had to hike out of a bowl for an hour one day, we came home every night smiling, aching and eager for more.

Never have I been more grateful for elk & forrest neckies. Seriously, these things did their job! However biased I may be they really work and I was skipping with joy when Forrest turned to me on the herse chair in Grand Montets and said "this is the best neckie I have ever owned." BOOM. Dry, warm AND smug!!

I am hip hopping for joy today. Elk & Forrest were featured in an online version of one of the coolest lifestyle magazines this side of London. IN OUT Magazine said some pretty wonderful things and I am brimming with pride and excitement. It is so rad to see other's reactions to my work and to know I am sewing in the right direction. 

A little quote to feed my ego:

"Every so often you some across something very special that you are torn between telling the world about and keeping it your own little secret. It may be a restaurant, a hotel or even a pair of shoes - or in our case this week, some truly beautiful handmade neckerchiefs from the entirely lovely Elk & Forrest!"

Today was a good day. 

All the new fabric designs are up on the shop ready and waiting for you guys to snap 'em up. Both Elk & Forrest are heading up to Edinburgh this weekend to celebrate one of our nearest and dearest's birthdays. Happy Birthday lovely Ands. We love you SO much!
