About

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

You can find me knitting, spinning, dyeing, weaving and felting in my garage, out on the deck, kitchen, hay storage barn – anywhere I can.

I strive to provide an opportunity for people to connect with where their yarn comes from. By supporting local, small flock farms I hope to help grow the true farm yarn name. Whilst it is no longer a huge part of what I do, I occasionaly have available in the store some of my naturally dyed yarn. Without the use of chemicals I dye locally sourced wool with the natural pigment found in the plants and flowers about my farm and home.

Whilst I dream of raising my own flock to grow all the wool I could ever need, ultimately, I hope to tighten the gap between pasture and pullover.
