My home in the rural Western Maine
foothills of the White Mountains makes a lovely back drop for fiber creations. 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.
