Once Upon a Design

Notable design details:

Princess Patch, our heroine rides on the back of one of her brothers, looking determined as ever to succeed in her goal.
Princess Patch, our heroine rides on the back of one of her brothers, looking determined as ever to succeed in her goal.
Hand-knit cardigans fly through the air, ready to be plucked by feathered brothers.
In the scuttle and flurry of feathers, Patch has lost her knitting needles. Can you spot where they have gotten to?
The sun hits the feathers in such a way they glow a rosy pink, which is inspired by the pink duochrome shimmer.

Notable design motifs:

Unique 12-sided bollard cap inspired by memories of the merry-go-round and complete with lovely embossed typography.
Hexagonal grip section drawing from the nuts and bolts of Ferris Wheel Press’ history in printmaking.
A rollerball tip that can be used to directly draw ink from a bottle, or through the converter for smaller vessels.
Circular wordmark debossed into the scalloped base of the body.
