Artists Describing Their Art:

Aisling Curtin - My name is aisling I have been a fibre artisan for about 5 years now . up until the recient pandemic i have always sold my pieces atour local farmers market .but as of the last week i have started to sell online .all my pieces are one of a kind made from upcycled yarn from other knitters. anything that is custom ordered i use yarn that is picked by the customer ....

Eli West - I am a queer American fiber and mixed media artist with a B.A. in Arts and Crafts from the Evergreen State College.
