Waejong Kim and Anna Pulvermakher, owners of Loopy Mango, the clothing
and jewelry boutique in the Dumbo district in Brooklyn, N.Y., are also
authors of the forthcoming Crochet Jewelry: 40 Beautiful and Unique Designs
(Interweave Press, September 2007). To celebrate the book and BEA, the
pair are offering BEA attendees a 10% discount during BEA.
Kim and Pulvermakher will also be at the Interweave booth (#2721) on Saturday, June 2, at 11 a.m., where they will talk about crocheting, present a trunk show of crochet accessories from their book and do a free drawing/giveway of crochet earrings from their store.
In January, the New York Times wrote: "If one store best represents Front Street in Dumbo, it is Loopy Mango, a transplant from the East Village that opened in September. The store, a glossy gallery of a space, sells vintage clothes and antiques alongside smart, new fashion and jewelry from designers like Tufi Duek, Tocca, Rachel Roy and Tracy Reese . . . One of the founders of Loopy Mango, Waejong Kim, is a crochet artist, and the store has become something of a destination for crochet fetishists . . . the Loopy Mango crocheted products are unlike any crochet work you have seen."
Loopy Mango is located at 117 Front St. (between Adams and Washington Streets) in Brooklyn; 718-858-5930, www.loopymango.com.
