| Mitten Kits with Handspun Yarn |

| Great Gift Idea! |
The process of designing yarns and knitwear starts with whole fleeces that I buy from local farmers. At times I hand spin
the wool directly from the bag of raw wool and then wash the hand spun yarn. At other times I send the bags of alpaca, angora
rabbit, wool or mohair to local fiber mills to be processed into roving(washed and combed fiber) or yarn. Additional steps
include dying the fibers with artisan and natural dyes either in the wool or after yarn is made. Often the yarns are hand
painted. Please view the links to farms and mills on the links page. I sell the single plied hand spun yarn in
100 yard skeins and also locally mill spun yarn hand dyed with natural dyes and artisan dyes.
