WHO IS SHE? An up and coming independent designer based in the Bay Area of California. I started off sewing my junior year of high school customizing sweaters, shoes, and other things for myself. With the purchase of my first sewing machine my senior year I knew I would be unstoppable. Unfortunately I had never used a sewing machine a day in my life. But with a lot of determination I figured out and since then have been furthering my skills and making apparel for just about anyone who wants a bit of YO SHANK! swag. WHAT DOES SHE DO? Self taught sewer my main goal in the YO SHANK! line to to create more uniqueness in fashion. The number one reason why no two things I make are exactly the same. ORIGINALITY IS EVERYTHING. Everything in my portfolio are things I have made and examples of things I can make for you. Since like I said, no two things I make are the same you can trust you won't see another soul wearing it. YO SHANK! is not only about originality but also eco-friendly. The majority of the items I make are made from reused materials and fabrics.

New Year And New Colours.

Cinco days into this new adventure called 2010 and I already feel it will be a great one. I've been getting alot of business and hits thanks to Blogspot and Facebook. Its lovely. Sewing is such a great outlet for me. I love the fact that the things I make for me and other people are made by ME. A feeling of self accomplishment ya dig? Anways I decided to make my infamous hooded scarf into a few more colors and patterns. I'm going to be sending them to my sister Acacia who is a fab photographer. I'm soooo juiced to see what she does with them :) so here they are and also the "Tale Of Two Tities" T I said I was working on. Its absolutely the funniest thing to me. Well let me know what you guysssss think! I love feed back!
