Here's a sample of some of the colors we got working with KoolAid in a poorly lit garage on a cold Saturday in October in Minnesota. Positively tropical!

And here's the result of dyeing day....Kool-Aid dyed socks by Denise N. Yummy!


This little guy was created by Julie Slaby, Moorhead MN, owner of Pieces of String www.piecesofstring.net


Sally W. proudly displays her needlefelted pumpkin which she completed in Needlefelting Class with Julie Slaby. Wonderful!

Deb K. made this meobius bed for her Yorkie, Tommy. He LOVES it! Pattern available in Cat Bordhi's 2nd Treasury of Magical Knitting.

Felt Clogs - Before & After

Currently in the shop I have Ashford acid dyes. They're great for immersion and rainbow dyeing as well as painting.

I use the little garage in the back for my dyeing workshops. The camp stove is ready to cook up some lovely colors on your fibers, yarns, or cloth. Check the class schedule for the next session.

Felting is just so-o-o popular right now. I've got lots of samples in the store of felted, knitted and felted, and needle felting. Be sure to stop by and see them. The Brown Sheep Lambs Pride and Cascade 220 yarns are shop favorites for felting, and there's lots of novelty yarns to incorporate into your projects.

I have felting classes every month. We've knitted slippers, scuffs, purses and pouches, then felted them right here in the shop in my trusty old Maytag washer.

For needlefelting, I've started to add a variety of colors of Harrisville fibers. You know their great colorways in their yarns...well it's available in fiber for needlefelting. Also, color packs from Ashford and Fiber Trends

Now in stock: Superwash Sport weight Sock Yarn 100% wool - anybody interested in dyeing their own sock yarn?

NEED TO FELT YOUR CREATIONS BUT HAVE THOSE FRONT LOADING WASHER CAN'T-OPEN-THE-DOOR BLUES? I'd like to introduce you to my trusty Maytag (age unknown). For a $5.00 fee, you can come and use my washer to felt your latest project and you'll be singin' a happy tune. Just call / email to schedule a time 218-346-YARN or atlooseends AT arvig DOT net.
