PeepalooFields Forever!
We've said it before and it bears repeating - Colorado has independent yarn dyers galore!We welcome another yarn to the shop, this time hailing from Littleton, Colorado.Shari Scheider, owner of PeepalooFields, is a young mother who loves coffee and yarn. She says that her 4 and 6 year old make up her story as they live each day. Her intention is to make yarn with unique, bright and beautiful colors and she meets that goal every time!Her Sensible Sock yarn inspires cheerfulness and it's so very difficult to choose just one colorway!When you take a close look at Shari's yarn labels, you realize that she has a great sense of humor because they read like nutrition labels on food!As its name implies, this yarn is fabulous for socks but it there are many other project options.Several people have made Andrea Mowry's Find Your Fade with it. Others have made Stephen West's The Doodler.This yarn would also make an impressive simple shawl such as Martina Behm's Hitchhiker or Samadhi which are garter stitch throughout.If there's a baby or small child in your life, tincanknits' Flax Light or Playdate would be darling in any of these yarns.During the week, Shari is a Physical Therapist who manages an outpatient burn center. She has two passions; one is helping her patients and the other is dyeing yarn.Our supply will go fast because Shari only dyes twice a month on the weekends. In those dye sessions, she creates 12 colorways and each colorway has only 5 skeins. Picking up a skein or two of her yarn is a special purchase!Be sure to come into the shop Thursday, Friday or Saturday for our Mother's Day events. Select items will be 50% off, if you make a purchase you will be entered into a drawing to win a Jerry Ertle beetlekill yarn bowl, and there will be Knitting in the Garden from 10 - 1 on Saturday.We hope to see you there!
