Voices in Wool
In these occasional conversations, I talk with people around the world whose lives touch, or have been touched, by wool.
On April 22nd, I talked with Sherry Mitchell, of Mitchell Wool Company. She gave us a behind the scenes tour of her yarn and dye operations, and introduced us to two of this year's lambs. I admire the heart and passion and commitment and hard work that Sherry puts into moving us (humans and sheep and soil alike) forward in a positive direction.
Sherry’s beautiful yarn is in the kit for my Knit Stars masterclass. Early registration has since closed, but it will reopen this fall. You can sign up to be notified when it reopens.
