by Annie Claire is… made by Annie Claire! Originally from England, Annie now finds herself on the very Northern Coastline of California, where she and her husband are goat dairy farmers. She taught herself how to knit one dark winter living in Finland. It came so easily and naturally it seemed like she knew how to all along [maybe her Grandmother's genes have something to do with that], and has been knitting ever since.

You can find her knitting, spinning, dyeing, weaving and felting in her garage, out on the deck, kitchen, bedroom, hay storage barn – anywhere she can.

She strives to provide an opportunity for people to connect with where their yarn comes from. By supporting local, small flock farms she hopes to grow the true farm yarn name. Without the use of chemicals she dyes her yarn with natural pigment found in the plants and flowers about her land and home.

With dreams of raising her own flock to grow all the wool she needs, ultimately, she aims to tighten the gap between pasture to pullover.
