  • Indie yarn dyer Jen Mumme of Fresh From the Cauldron
    An indie-dyer in Central Florida and mother of two, Jen Mumme started dyeing yarn for herself in the kitchen back in April of 2008 to help offset the cost of her own craft addiction. She posted some photos on Flickr of her novice attempts and was asked by a stranger to dye some for her. Things just took off from there. Now she dyes colorways at her studio while her boys are at school and sells them on her Etsy shop.

  • Lost City Knits' Denise Bell, with new book Ultima Thule
    Wherever she looks, Denise Bell sees patterns, so it’s no surprise that her knitting emphasis is lace.
    Travel and spending time in the natural world provide inspiration. She recently visited Shetland and Scotland to delve further into the history of fine lace knitting. Her business, Lost City Knits, named for the community nearest her Oklahoma farm, offers fine hand-dyed yarns and original designs. Along with her husband, she is the author of the book Ultima Thule: Patterns Inspired by the Shetland Islands.
