HAND SELECTED YARNS
– BOLD INDICATES SOUTHERN MAKERS –
Appalachian Baby takes cotton from Texas organic farms & custom mills it so it knits up soft & can be machine washed & dried. Finished baby items are handmade by a community of Appalachian artisans. It is US certified organic and is spun in a twist that makes the cotton exceptionally soft. It can be machine washed & dried. No dyes are added which makes it perfect for finished baby items.
Blue Sky Fibers is a Minnesota company that consciously crafts exquisite fibers & spectacular colors that are meant to inspire like an artist’s palette of colors; based in Cedar, Minnesota. We love their organic worsted cotton for its year-round wearability and washable fibers.
Copper Corgi hand dyed yarns are made by Sarah on Florida’s Space Coast with fantastic Southern names like Stormy Marsh, Mac n’ Cheese & Spanish Moss. This indie dyer has also created three custom store colors for Fuzzy Goat in fingering weights: WestJack Kid, Billie Jean, and Rosabilly.
Yumiko designs both gorgeous yarns and patterns. We love her yarn for its extremely lightweight feel and lovely colors, and her patterns for their effortless sophistication and style. Originally from Japan, she now lives and creates in Arizona. (Hence the need for the lightweight yarn that we so appreciate here in southern Georgia). Yumiko says her unique designs are influenced by her Japanese heritage and yet ones she would want in her own closet to wear.
Emma is a young woman with her own yarn-dyeing company. It all started when she was 15, doing a homeschooling project for math ratios, and needless to say she was hooked. Her happy colors are luminous. Her wool/silk blend yarns produce a fabulous, soft drape for shawls and sweaters.
The Farmers Daughter Fibers is owned & operated by farm girl Candice. She embodies her heritage & home state of Montana into all aspects of her work. Candice hails from a rich foundation of ranchers, farmers, and women who were crafty & unpronounced in the tradition of knitting, crochet, quilting, sewing and cross-stitch. This 4th-generation artist continues to offer a product done in the traditional methods of hand-dying fibers. We can’t say enough about this yarn from her ranch in “the last best place.”
On a farm in Baltimore County, Maryland, Jan and Lisa collaborate together to create programs, projects and products for the fiber enthusiast.

Their favorite locks come from a cross between Teeswater and the BFL, commonly referred to as “BLTees.”
Knit Collage yarns are inspired by the places Amy travels, especially India & Hong Kong, & she is constantly collecting things that usually somehow become incorporated in her yarn designs. This could be hand-printed fabrics from Jaipur or shimmering paisley trims typically found on Indian wedding garb. By supporting age-old Indian practices, Amy hopes to keep this craft thriving. Based in Boston, Knit Collage loves products that tell a story.

Manos del Uruguay is a cooperative founded in 1968, begun by five women whose goal was to develop economic opportunities for women in a country where there were, & are still, few opportunities for work. The Manos Cooperatives provide health insurance, retirement pensions, paid vacations & paid maternity leave for their members. Moreover, members enjoy a sense of achievement and of self-determination – the first kindergartens in Uruguay were begun by the Manos Cooperative, to provide childcare for the artisans. In addition to creating yarns for handcrafters, the Manos Cooperatives have continued to produce ready-to-wear pieces for designers and department stores such as Ralph Lauren, Donna Karan, Nordstrom’s, & Sak’s. We love this easy-care yarn for its deep hand-painted hues

Ryan grew up near Savannah and relocated to Athens, Georgia where he started knitting at a university knit group in 2015.
Sandnes Garn's quality is exceptional and we brought these yarns in to have a quality, but more affordable option so that we can serve a wider range of knitters.

In Akan folklore, Ananse is a clever spider who can bring joy and aid, or mischief and confusion to those around him.
SweetGeorgia Yarns is Felicia's artisan yarn company that is passionate about bringing you stunningly saturated colors, luxurious natural fibers and yarns of the highest quality. Based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, enveloped by the Georgia Strait. In 2005, when owner Felicia started her blog, she named it “sweetgeorgia” in anticipation of writing about her passion for baking bread and a dream of opening a bakery on Georgia Street in Vancouver. The blog became a space to write about all sorts of interests (in addition to bread), including knitting, dyeing, and spinning and “sweetgeorgia” evolved into a dream about sharing the comfort that comes with craft.

29 Bridges is a reference to Mary's hometown - Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh is iconic for its bridges. If you're not familiar, Pittsburgh has 446 bridges so they are a way of life. 446 Bridges seemed a little awkward to say but in Mary's research she found reference to 29 Bridges and that seemed to fit. Many of her colorways are named for Pittsburgh bridges, bridge styles, streets, or landmarks. Mary got her fiber start from her mother and grandmother who were very resourceful and crafty. Both were accomplished sewists and Mary's mother taught her to knit when she was five. In college Mary discovered that there was a fiber arts program in the art school. When she saw the big floor looms, she was hooked and did an independent fiber arts study for three years. Students were required to dye their own fiber and yarn for projects and that's where Mary learned to dye.

After months of long-distance romancing, Brett moved to London to be closer to Emma. What started off as a sunny day ended in a typical British downpour with Brett coming home soaking wet.
