Despite coming down with a virus that knocked me out all day on Saturday, I managed to check out this year’s Renegade Craft fair in McCarren park on Sunday afternoon. I always admire the hardworking crafters/artisans that come from all over the U.S. to display their goods. Here are some of my favorites from the show:

Sustainable, hand made clothing with screen printed designs from Make It Good based in Portland, Oregon

Brooklyn neighborhood series: Williamsburg and Greenpoint by Two Arms Inc

The always amazing bags from Forestbound.

Perpetual Gardening Calendars from Krank Press. There are a few versions available for various regions throughout the U.S.  For each month there are two lists: planting recommendations and my favorite part: what is in season at the market. I picked up the New York edition.

Hand-dyed and hand-embroidered linens from Love, Daniella

Fabric jewelry made from hand-printed fabrics by Amie Cunningham of Thief & Bandit

Posters illustrated by Jack Dylan of Toronto

Hand printed & hand crafted homewares, accessories & bags by Appetite

Watching our friend Jon Beacham of The Brother in Elysium letterpress cards while Woody Guthrie crooned from a pair of speakers. Check out some of their beautiful new editions.

Reclaimed wood and ephemera from Peg and Awl

Multi-layered silkscreened prints and posters by Jason Cantoro and Alice Jarry of Cinqun Quatre
