I'm Anne: a maker, knitting artist, and believer in the common good. I create patterns for knitwear, hand-dye yarn, and make my own clothes.
My handmade kits are more than materials to make a project. They are an experience of beauty, slow making, and hope.
Using hand-dyed yarn is one of the great pleasures for a maker. Hand-dyed fiber adds a complexity of color and vibrance to your knitted garment that is impossible to achieve with commercial yarn.
I live and work in San Francisco, and my outdoor dye kitchen is where I gently layer color upon fiber, until it's just the right shade to express the emotion and meaning I have in mind. My style is to create a yarn that will give you a knitted fabric that looks semi-solid from a distance—and rich and multi-hued when viewed up close.
