“You can't test courage cautiously,
so I ran hard and waved my arms hard, happy.”
/Annie Dillard

Handcrafted Buttons from earth's elements

FUNCTIONAL STONEWARE

VALHALLA FARM + IDLEWILD

Mountains.
Sheep.
Yarn.
Two Friends.

This is my second yarn collaboration with a small farm in the Blue Ridge mountains with a dear shepherdess friend and a beloved flock of sheep.

What I’ve learned?

You can start on one track in life and life says: here, try this too.
Happy sheep produce distinctive & special yarn.
There are remarkable people in this making community that want to see you succeed.
Friendship spans miles. 

Two bases - Flourish and Cultivate - that I’m proud to bring to the maker who relishes knowing who grew their wool, and delights in the musing artist that dyed it in small batches between slinging pots and handcrafting buttons.
