Slow Fashion Inspired by Arizona’s 5C’s

Project Background

A book celebrating slow fashion and inspired by Arizona’s 5 C’s, this project was 70 pages of knitting and crochet patterns, photography and content supplied by local artisans.

  • Less Traveled Yarn is a small batch artisan yarn shop local to Phoenix, Arizona and inspired by desert landscapes and city life.

  • The concept for this project was to layout fourteen custom knit and crochet patterns submitted by local artists and inspired by the “5 C’s” of Arizona.

  • Arizona is known for its desert landscapes and hearty climate. Lesser known is the “5 C’s” as locals lovingly refer to Arizona’s major exports and offerings: Copper, Cotton, Cattle, Citrus and Climate.

“Kendra is an incredibly talented graphic designer, and she also has a keen eye for detail which was evident in every page of our book. She worked closely with us to understand our vision and the tone we wanted to set for our brand, and she used that understanding to create a design that perfectly captured the essence of our business. The end result was a beautiful, professional, and highly engaging book that we are incredibly proud to share with our customers. Kendra's work truly brought our vision to life, and we couldn't have asked for a better partner in this project.”
