What’s more, it will be unique and high-quality, something that is hard to find in the typical clothing shop. There’s no need to look like everyone else.
Her Arcadia, Indiana shop always has something going on. If she’s not spinning wool, she may be weaving a dishtowel or shawl. Otherwise, she might be teaching others. Whether it is one-on-one workshops or classes to fit a crowd, there’s always room for learning here.
Rag rugs, handbags, and fiber dyeing are a few topics that she has offered in the past. As if that’s not enough, this Indiana weaver doesn’t stop there. She goes more in depth with workshops on things like twills, weaving your own coverlet, and the double weave.
