Loch Briar Knits

Bio:

I started hand-dyeing yarn on a whim about the same time I started my Youtube channel. I did it as a lark, but enjoyed it so much, I just kept going and soon Loch Briar Knits Hand Dyed Yarns was born. I do small dye lots in a tiny studio (aka my laundry room). I love earthy tones and am often inspired by nature and the seasons.

Inspiration:

The seasons and nature play a big part in what inspires my colourways, but I stay open to whatever pops into my head. I enjoy exploring colour combos of all kinds and don't limit myself.
