Birdwatching began in 2009 with the design of the hand-knit alpaca Pigeon, honoring New York’s unofficial city bird, as a souvenir for the Project No. 8 / Travel store at the Ace Hotel.

Various Projects’ Pigeon is now joined by an ever-growing flock of state and regional birds. 

100% Hand-knit alpaca with new material stuffing. Produced in Bolivia in compliance with Fair Trade standards.
