What got you interested in your art of choice?
My grandmother (Maw) taught me to knit when I was 9. From then until 2001 I didn’t knit much and in 2003 is when I started knitting almost daily. I started dyeing when I was looking for yarn for a KAL. I couldn’t find lace yarn in purple that I wanted. So I dyed it. After that I was just hooked.
Do you have a favorite item or colorway?
I have 2 favorite bases, Phoenix Feather (50% Merino 50% Silk) and Mermaid’s Hair (Alpaca/ Merino with sparkle). My favorite colorways are Court Jester, Wingardium Leviosa, and Rapunzel’s Ribbons.
What is something you strive to offer the fiber arts community?
Quality yarn in unique, fun colors all US sourced or fair trade items.
What is your fiber arts superpower?
Able to combine plain yarn, fairy tales fun, and the color wheel to make your knitting magical
