Wooly Dye Works
Fiber/Textiles
I have been working with textiles most of my life. I started weaving in 1968, and started dyeing yarn at that time. As years went on I dappled with many other textile arts but finally settled on rug hooking as my favorite in the early 1990’s. I have now been rug hooking and dyeing wool fabric for the rugs for over 30 years. I do all kinds of hooking from fine cut to primitive cut and prefer mottled hand dyed wool to “as-is” wool to give more depth and “movement” to the colors in the rugs. Three of my rugs have been chosen for the annual Rug Hooking Magazine Celebrations book over the years and many of my rugs are featured in other rug hooking books.
