Octopus Love in Ocean Blue

I love t-shirts with interesting graphics, don’t you?

This organic cotton t-shirt made with water-based inks by Look For Fiddleheads is a new favorite. On the LFF site, there are so many great t-shirts it will make your head spin. Be very careful when you go there as you might just be inviting a new wardrobe addiction in. (Not kidding. She’s good.)

The designer, fine artist and former Certaintees founder, Lee Tracy, grew up in the Maine woods where she was taught to look for fiddle head ferns.

“We would pick the fiddle heads and cook them for dinner, with a touch of vinegar, or butter, and some salt,” says Tracy. “Fiddle heads are one of my favorite foods and searching for them is a great memory and current goal. ”
