Kim Dyes Yarn Pop Up
Kim Dyes Yarn Pop Up
We are so excited to host Kim Dyes Yarn for a pop up!
kim loves color and all of the ways colors blend and contrast with each other. This love of painting color onto fibers is a passion. As a lifelong knitter, Kim knows the quality of the fibers, the yarn composition and structure, the way yarn is dyed make a difference in the pleasure you experience while working with yarn and the quality of the finished project.
More recently, Kim has learned to spin fibers into yarn with a spinning wheel and a drop spindle to ensure that the fibers dyed at Kim Dyes Yarn are what hand spinners desire in hand dyed fibers. Spinning has become a meditative way for Kim to pass time which feeds both visual and textural senses.
To help keep the work of dyeing from becoming banal, new colorways and dyeing techniques are always being crafted. Kim has been dyeing yarn for over thirteen years.
When not dyeing or working with fiber, Kim is reading, baking, cooking new recipes, working on the garden and doting on her cat- Mushu, and her dog- Duncan. Kim shares a life with her husband and their grown children.
Inspiration comes from nature, books, music, and art.
