014 Felicia Lo of Sweet Georgia Yarns Expresses Her Passionate, Relentless, and Unapologetic Love of Color
Today I’m chatting with visual designer and entrepreneur, Felicia Lo, born and raised in Vancouver, Canada. In 2005, she founded Sweet Georgia Yarns, an artisan hand-dyed yarn company that expresses her passionate, relentless, and unapologetic love of color.
In this episode, Felicia explains why she got into and an industry “saturated” with hand-dyers (no pun intended). Driven by a desire to dye yarns that she wanted to work with personally, she became passionate about the process and hand-dying her own yarns became an artistic expression. Felicia followed this as her compass, which led to the success she experiences today.
When you’re passionate about starting something, it’s not a head equation, it’s about where your heart is. There’s nothing that can convince you not to do it, even if you’re told it’s difficult.
