After my book, Hand Dyeing Yarn and Fleece, by Storey was published, many people remarked that it’s simplicity and straight forward approach resonated with them. Since it’s publication I have been working on a project to bring the color portion of the book to the marketplace, as a free standing tool, for learning how to choose and use color. It is now available for sale. Here is a simple demonstration of how it works. Imagine you are wrapping a gift. Using the template, select the major colors of the paper. Place the circles over these colors. Now select the color in the rectangle as a ribbon or card for the spark. The Color Grid is available in my Etsy shop and some local yarn shops, fabric and quilting stores, and garden centers. It can also be purchased directly from me via email ([email protected]. Retail cost is $7.95 plus $3.50 shipping and handling. Massachusetts residents require a sales tax of 6.25% ($.50). Wholesale inquires are welcomed.

420 yards, 75% superwash Merino, 25% nylon yarn great for socks, shawls, and baby sweaters. Another new Poet Seat yarn which is amazingly soft and luxurious in its feel and bold and true to its colorway.

437 yards, 100 grams, 50% superwash Merino, 50% Silk yarn great for socks, shawls, baby sweaters, leg warmers and scarves. This is a new line of yarn which is softer, silkier and more sensuous than my standard yarn. It has a lively sheen and easy drape.
