"I love to spin and knit and am committed to providing products that are produced in a way that protects the environment. Whenever possible, I buy yarns for my knitting that are made in the United States. My hand spun yarn is made from fleece purchased directly from American farmers or wool brokers. It is spun in a log cabin in the redwood forest.

I use professional acid dyes on my hand painted yarn. It is then dried in the sun and fresh air on my property. "
