S7 Ep 116:

Welcome Back!  Season 7 of the Make and Decorate with Stephanie podcast is here!! 

If you are new to this podcast, you will hear any and everything about making, aka sewing, quilting crafting, knitting and interior decorating.  This first half of the season, I have a fabulous guest on almost every episode. 

There will be a Chit Chat segment on this episode after the guest segment.  For more episodes available only on my Patreon site, visit Patreon.com/makeanddecorate

My guest today is Kristin Oldach, owner of KraeO in Chicago.   Kristin is an indie hand dyer of yarn which is for sale on her website as well as local yarn shops.  We talk about her yarn, what fibers she chose to be in her yarn products. Mulberry silk and merino wool blends are a staple in her line of yarn as well as other fiber blends like wool and alpaca and more.  Kristin's yarn is so gorgeous and what I like to describe as very "painterly".  

We also chat about the different weights of yarn and how to use them in your projects, including using up those mini skeins you have been collecting and don't know what to make with them.
