New Yarns & A Cowl Kit!

Collections
The Raventwist Colour Collection for 2013-2014 is about life in the West. We sweep the Pacific Coast with its deep intense greens, sea blues and rich browns and head in country to soar over fearsome grey black slate Mountains into the glowing golden Prairies. Moving south into the sun we pass over the Four Corners and find joy in the turquoise, ochre, burnt orange and blood red of the American Southwest.

Vancouver, Canada.

Thanks to everyone who dropped by to say hello at KNIT CITY in Vancouver. It was a fabulous show. I was thrilled to meet so many of you.

Raventwist is new on the fibre circuit but I have been selling my hand-dyed products for the last five years as Rocky Mountain Dyeworks. Raventwist was created while I was recuperating from a broken pelvis earlier this year. Working on a short story that included a pennannular pin of a celtic braid with a raven (the pin still features in the story), one idea led to another, and Raventwist was born.

I mostly dye yarn & spinning fibre, some rug hooking wool and a few hundred silk scarves a year. The silk scarves are sold through a sister company, Rocky Mountain Wildrags, and are bought almost exclusively by cowboys!
