Los-Angeles-based designer Heidi Baker decided to come to San Francisco last week to celebrate her Bay Area roots, her entry into motherhood (her son, River, is 9 months old), and to toast her brand OZMA‘s expanded collection of fair trade knits with some favorite locals.
Made in Peru with the finest Alpaca, Wool, and Organic Pima Cotton yarns, each of OZMA‘s newest wares are the stuff cozy winter dreams are made of. Luckily for us, Heidi and her team tapped MOTHER and 20 Bay Area ladies to don the brand’s Earth-friendly fall/winter collection while getting into the festive holiday spirit while making wreaths at S.F.’s own Marigold flower shop.
In addition to getting crafty together, we sipped on wine by Flowers Vineyards & Winery, N/A sips by Aplós, coffee and tea by Marigold Café, and a delicious spread by Marigold (including incredibly addictive Dosa Chips). Wanna re-live it all with us?
