Annie Larson to be carried by national retailer Madewell

Despite having a relatively low profile in the Twin Cities, local knitwear designer Annie Larson has been enjoying international renown for her bright, early '90s-Espirit-esque machine knits under her brand ALL for Everyone. Most recently, she has been working on an order of hats and scarves for national retailer Madewell - her first order for such a sizable retailer - which will be available in select stores and online this fall. Go, Annie, go!
