Wooly Wrapping








Another treat from White Barn Farm Sheep & Wool- natural, hand dyed wool roving! This beautiful wool doubles as the perfect ribbon to spice up any gift!
Start with natural kraft paper or even a brown-paper bag (re-purpose!), then use any fabric scrap you have & sew on a band for added contrast. Next, wrap around your roving (yarn scraps work great too!). Finish it off with a bow, or button (this button available at White Barn Farm, is sustainably harvested & made to support an impoverished village in Africa). This will be a treat for any knitting enthusiast!

Have you Any Wool?

Here is a t-shirt I designed for White Barn Farm Sheep & Wool a local farm/fiber/yarn shop in the Hudson Valley. Excuse the poor picture quality which doesn't give these super-soft organic cotton tee's justice. Silk screened locally by ANTILOGY screen printing. Stop by Paula's shop to get your tee, have some tea, and craft till your hearts content with other local artists.
