BEAUTIFUL LAMBSWOOL PRODUCTS

Knotty is synonymous with Summer - but have you seen our gorgeous home & winter ranges? Stunning Lambswool Hand-loomed Blankets in pink & grey and the Arizona Jacquard Blanket in soft grey & natural is just sublime. These blankets are, like all Knottys, lightweight but don't underestimate their warmth and appeal - whether it be curling up on the couch for a Netflix session or making the bedroom cosier with the added touch of wool on the bed.

See our latest review from a recent customer purchasing the Arizona Blanket:

I am normally not someone that writes “reviews” but felt I had to about my new Knotty Arizona Blanket (Lambswool). I ordered it and it arrived the next day. And it is so divine - even more beautiful in real life! But you have caused me so much angst …. I purchased it as a throw and extra layer for my bed but it is too beautiful to hide away in my bedroom. I want to drape it beautifully on my sofa for the world to see. So each morning I throw it on my couch and when I go to bed I take it with me for a beautifully warm extra layer on these cold nights. So beautiful and double thickness so really warm but gorgeously soft! Thanks Knotty!

The quality and durability of these blankets at the price point is remarkable and Knotty prides itself on bringing you the BEST when it comes to our product range. All materials and workmanship carried out in Turkey to the highest standards.

Take a look online and see where a Knotty Blanket can work in your home!

WHY EVERYONE LOVES THE OTEKI RANGE!

It seems you just can't get enough of the Knotty Oteki range of Turkish towels. The collection appeals to everyone from Bloggers & Stylists to Beach Lovers & Surfers. So we asked a few of our Oteki fans what it was they loved so about the towels and here's what they had to say...

"I love that my Navajo looks great as a throw on my sofa but when I'm going to the beach or pool I just wrap it around me as a sarong and head out the door....so versatile"

"Whilst I wouldn't call myself a beach or Summer person....I absolutely love the Oteki towels for decorating at home. They tend to move around my house actually....sometimes hanging in the bathroom, at other times in the bedroom folded over a ladder or on the bed."

"Well, I just think they look really cool when I'm at the beach. I have a few different colours in the Kilim and Navajo as I like to coordinate them with the bikini I'm wearing that day."

"I guess aside from loving the patterns, I like that they have different colour ways on each side so it feels like two towels in one....and they are a little thicker than the average Turkish towel but still dry really quickly."

"My girlfriend bought me one, they make a good surfing towel and now all my surf buddies have them too"

A big thank-you to everyone who took the time to send through their comments on the Oteki range. To view the entire collection of exclusive Knotty designs and colours simply head to our SHOP page. You'll also receive 15% off when you purchase four or more full priced towels. Love Knotty xx

FIVE DESTINATIONS TO ADD TO YOUR BUCKET LIST!

If you're anything like us, you get back from one holiday and can't wait to start planning your next adventure! So we've put together five amazing destinations well and truly worth a visit....just remember to pack your travel essential - Knotty!

1. San Sebastian, Spain

Visit San Sebastian and be prepared to fall madly in love! This charming city really does have it all - beautiful beaches, art, shopping and a renowned food and wine culture. We love Spanish cuisine and Pintxos are must if you visit - these tapas style bites range from baguettes piled high with various culinary delights, to mouth watering mussels and slow cooked beef cheeks that melt in your mouth. If it’s a social, fun holiday you’re after, San Sebastian is for you!

2. Tulum, Mexico
A trip to Tulum to see the Ancient Mayan ruins against the stunning beach drop is definitely on our bucket list! Combined with the amazing Cave and Cavern diving, delicious yet affordable food & cocktails and the beautiful resorts by the beach, Tulum has it all!

3. Corfu, Greece
Corfu is a stunning and lushly green Greek island on the Ionian Sea. With beautiful resorts by the beach, we also love the idea of escaping the crowds and staying in the woody mountains surrounded by coves and olive groves. The crystal clear waters and excellent weather all year round definitely appeal as well as the rich history, museums and beautiful architecture.

4. Caye Caulker, Belize
This small Caribbean island off the coast of Belize is what holiday dreams are made of! The whole island can be covered on foot or by bike, with clear blue water making snorkelling a must! Reggae vibes permeate throughout the island due to the small community of Rastafarians. It has the ultimate fun friendly atmosphere and is the ideal place to relax in a hammock and forget your troubles!

5. Majorca, Spain
The largest island in The Balearics, known for its beach resorts, sheltered coves & limestone mountains. In Majorca you can enjoy wineries in the centre of island or stay by the water and visit the many colourful bars and restaurants. There really is something for everyone in this idyllic holiday spot!

MEET THE TALENTED DUO BEHIND KNOTTY!

MEET THE TALENTED DUO BEHIND KNOTTY!

In only a few short years, Knotty has managed to storm to the forefront of an extremely competitive market with their innovative ideas and unique take on the traditional Turkish towel.
Annika Macvean and Caren Vidler, our two Knotty Founders, have managed to take the standard Turkish towel and make it stand out from the crowd. With the new Knotty Home collection about to launch, we thought it was the perfect time to get to know a little more about this dynamic duo!

Knotty has become quite the success story in only a few years. What inspired you to begin the label in 2011?

We met through our daughters who were in a swimming squad together. I was on actually the hunt for a Christmas present for Annika….and saw Turkish towels online in the US. I was so impressed by the story of Turkish towels, lightweight, environmentally friendly and just so versatile for Australian life. We figured we'd add a splash of colour and a cute name and it would be perfect for the Australian market.

What do you consider to be your greatest achievement/s in this time?

Changing the look of Turkish towels. We designed the Superbright range two years ago and completely revitalised the original stripe design that had been around for centuries. The Superbrights and Colourblocks have added a whole new dimension to the colour and design of Turkish towels.

We are also extremely proud of our collaboration with Sportsgirl. Being approached by Sportsgirl to collaborate on the "KnottyforSportsgirl" range was very exciting. Having grown up with this iconic Australian brand, it was extremely exciting to be asked to be a part of their Australian designer collaborations series.

And finally, to create a business from the spark of an idea that gives us the flexibility to achieve a "mostly" healthy and harmonious work, family balance is very rewarding. Although between October and December 25th our families may disagree that there is a fair balance!

It seems everyone loves Knotty, why do you think they have such broad appeal?

Because they work! Knottys do what they say they will do…. they dry you after a swim, they're quick drying, compact, eco friendly and they look awesome! They are just SO versatile - One person's towel is another’s sarong or scarf. Some just love what they add to accessorising the home and they are perfect for the packing weight conscious traveller. Also in this day of social media, the way they look in photos and on children, teens, and in a beach scene - it just makes a photo!

Last Winter you introduced a beautiful woollen blanket to your Home collection. What other exciting new arrivals can we expect to see from Knotty in the next few months?

More beautiful blankets in some great new season colours like Mink and Rose Quartz, along with the expanded Oteki range including some fabulous new graphic designs and “on trend” colours for 2016/17 – Rose Quartz, Mint and Light Grey and all in both the standard size Oteki and the very popular double towel/throw size. Our favourite new product is a Woollen blanket/throw. It is in the same jacquared weave as the Oteki range but in wool. It is absolutely stunning and already in hot demand from many of our retailers around Australia!

We spot your Oteki range not only on the beach but often in the homes of Australia’s leading Interiors Bloggers and Stylists. What do you think it is that makes this range so popular? Are there plans to expand this collection?

The Oteki range is the perfect home or beach accessory making it so popular. Weather it is one of our Maxi Kilim Towels on the beach or as a throw on the coach or the end of a bed, or a Skull design gracing the powder room. We love our Oteki ranges – like all of our products they are sourced from Turkey and Knotty has exclusive rights to these products in Australia. These ranges were developed to offer a different type of Turkish Towel to the Australian market. We are continually developing new designs. Our many retailers around Australia, Asia, Dubai, New Zealand and America particularly love this style being so versatile and well priced.

In a competitive market, Knotty is at the forefront, leading the way. What do you think are the keys to your success?

Innovative ideas - taking the standard Turkish towel and making it stand out from the crowd. In 2013 we developed the Superbrights - gorgeous clash colours designed on our lounge room floor - now seen around the world - our colours taken on by everyone else!! When travelling to Turkey we can see the influence of our introduction of these colourful styles in the factories with beautiful coloured threads and productions on the weaving machines, in the washing houses and folding rooms. Now we have more than 15 Superbrights and 8 Colourblocks that will just keep changing with the seasons - Otekis have also been instrumental in building the Knotty brand. We continually develop new designs, colourways and styles.

We try to keep it simple and make sure everyday we enjoy what we do.

They say doing what you like is freedom, but liking what you do is true happiness.

KNOTTY GETS TO KNOW - MY FABULOUS DESIGN

We discovered Suzanne, of My Fabulous Design, about a year ago when she posted a Knotty Towel on her Instagram page. Since then, she has become one of our favourite lifestyle bloggers to follow, giving us lots of style inspo for the home. To find out more about Suzanne and her unique style read on!

1. Tell us a little about how My Fabulous Design began? Have you always had an interest in design?
My Fabulous Design was born purely as a creative outlet! I have always had a huge interest in interior design and photography from a very young age, and I just love how Instagram and blogging allows me to fuse both these passions.

2. Could you give our readers a few tips on how they could incorporate some of your style into their homes?
My biggest tip would be to embrace what you love and not worry about what everyone else is doing! Your home should be a reflection of your personal style.
In my case, I love monochrome but always, always with a pop of colour! I also like having a mix of all different styles, I am forever changing things around!!

3. What trends do you see coming through this season for interiors?
I see a big movement towards more organic and natural products - especially incorporating plants within the home!
Also, after a few seasons dominated by minimalist and modern, I foresee a reintroduction of the occasional vintage piece to add some more character and warmth into the home.

4. What five words would you use to describe yourself
Creative, enthusiastic, loyal, kind and appreciative.

5. And lastly, could you tell us why you love Knotty towels?
The first time I saw the Knotty star towel I knew I just had to buy it!
I love the classic prints and how versatile all the products are. I use mine at the beach, on the lounge and even as a throw at the end of the bed! They are so beautifully made and wash up super well!

TRAVELS WITH THE NAVAJO

I’m often taken to the beach, pool or displayed around the home so when I found out I was heading to Europe this January I was very excited! My owner told me we were heading to London, Paris and skiing in The French Alps and I wondered what I’d be doing. Well I was busy! When I wasn’t wrapped around her neck skiing in Val D’isere, I was keeping her son warm whilst sleeping on The Eurostar or drying her freshly washed hair. She even preferred my company to those horrible airline blankets on all the plane trips. We had a wonderful trip and I’m looking forward to being taken away on the next journey!

We did a little shopping in London...here I am looking almost as cool as these new Nikes!

KNOTTY GETS TO KNOW - NALU

KNOTTY GETS TO KNOW - NALU

We were blown away when we met Dali and Finn, two teenagers with big dreams to make a difference. They’ve created a street wear brand, Nalu, based on a get/give model - when you purchase a Nalu t-shirt they give a school uniform to a child that needs one. We sat down with the oldest of the two siblings, Dali to find out more…

What inspired you to start your label, Nalu?

Nalu began out of a spontaneous desire to keep our friends in school. In 2011 Finn and I spent time in schools in hot dusty central India while our parents volunteered as chiropractors. We formed some great friends then and each year we revisit the same place. At a certain point I turned 13 and I saw something that I did not like- a lot of my friends were missing. They were no longer at school because they could not afford a school uniform. The government stops paying for it at this age. My friends were working in brick factories, in construction, farming or were pregnant…all at age 13. Strangely enough, once the child is in school, they get free food, tuition and school books. But the uniform decides if a child stays on school or not; it is THE determining factor. Our bright friends wanted to stay in school but these families are so poor that they do not even have a spare apple for the whole family in one year let alone a school uniform! We could not believe that something so affordable for us could have such a measurable impact to keep our friends in school and break the poverty cycle.

But we did not want to start a charity. We did not want to return to the children we had been helping and tell them we could no longer provide uniforms because donations had dried up. So we started Nalu as a for profit business and for every t-shirt we sell, we give a school uniform to a child who needs one.

We love fashion, creativity, travel and our friends in India. So we combined our loves and started a social enterprise.

Do you design t shirts just for kids, or is there something for adults too?

Yes, we make for men, women and children. Its really cool, simple street wear that you can see on our website www.nalu.me
We also have trucker caps, sweaters and backpacks.

You’ve developed a great initiative for casual clothes day at schools. What does it involve?

Most schools in the western world wear a formal school uniform. But roughly 4 times per year they have what is called “casual clothes day”. Usually this day is when students wear their casual clothes and make a small donation to contribute towards a charity or a community project. We thought that when the privileged students slip out of their uniform for casual clothes day, they could purchase a Nalu t-shirt and in doing so, provide a new, correctly fitting school uniform to a child who needs one for an entire year. Kids helping kids, schools helping schools……for us this is a no brainer way to help a child less well off than us.

In five years time, what do you hope to be doing?

This is a long time question; we only have a plan up to 2 years from now but the principles remain unchangeable. We would like to keep as many children flowing into high school after age 12 as possible. We manage our giving component conservatively so we do not disappoint students over the long term - once we commit to a student, we like to know we can support that student continually through high school when they need a school uniform if they choose to continue their education.

Personally I would like study fashion and keep designing super cool street clothes for both urbanites and nature loving enthusiasts.

And finally, we would love it and be humbled to see our customers wearing our Nalu gear, knowing that they have helped keep a child in school.

And lastly Dali, which is your favourite Knotty towel?

I already have the Original in Charcoal so this would definitely come in as my favourite. All Knotty towels are natural to touch and are a perfect size for chillin’ on the beach or to use as a towel when we travel about in hot climates. Cool name Knotty because of all the little knots at the end of each towel…

PHOTOGRAPHER CLARK LITTLE

Our all time favourite surf photographer is Clark Little. Highly regarded worldwide, Clark discovered his ability to capture the extraordinary beauty of the shorebreak when his wife wanted a picture of the ocean to decorate the bedroom wall. With the confidence of an experienced surfer, Clark went out and bought a waterproof camera setup, jumped in the ocean, and started snapping away, recording the beauty and power of Hawaiian waves. "Clark’s view" is a unique and often dangerous perspective of waves from the inside out, captured in photos for all to enjoy from the safety of dry land.

Here's a selection of some his work but we recommend following @clarklittle on Instagram to see even more from this amazing photographer.
