Pickle Jar Dyes

Solar Dyeing in Pickle Jars is kind of a summer obsession for me. Each mini-batch is 100% unique and a repeat is never guaranteed. Yarns, roving, locks, wool, mohair, silk, angora, alpaca, the sky is the limit and there are no rules here.

  • Good Shepherds

    "Aoire Maith" translates to "Good Shepherd" In Irish.

    We believe in the good men and women who spend their time and love shepherding their flocks. We believe in the sustainability of wool, alpaca and other fiber producing animals. We believe it is important to support these good shepherds.
