Katinka on East 9th Street near 2nd Avenue was founded by musician Billy Lyles and his wife, designer Jane Williams in 1979.
They sell unique Indian clothing, shoes and accessories and original designs by Jane in a very tiny #storefront created between two neighboring buildings, which in of itself is very a New York City oddity, which we love.
• We recently visited @katinka_ny in our livestream YouTube video highlighting small businesses and Christmas decorations in the East Village and spoke with Jane about how she curated the selection at this amazingly colorful shop and how she are struggling to keep their 41+ year-old business afloat.
• To watch our livestream walk and visit to Katinka where we purchased a pair of handcrafted mittens to help support this lovely shop, please watch and subscribe to our JamesandKarla YouTube channel, see direct link below & in bio and IG story.
