I just discovered a wonderful not for profit yarn company and placed a big order for our fall classes:  Frog Tree Yarns, distributed by T & C Imports.  Their mission is to “supply meaningful and continuous work to various artisans and non-profit groups.”   Most of their yarns are produced by women and all of their fibers come from developing countries, specifically Bolivia and Peru.  They provide a way for women to provide for their families’ basic needs and invest in community development.

Their products are fair trade and GORGEOUS.  I purchased the Frog Tree Alpaca, which is produced by a non-profit cooperative in Bolivia.  It is coming in 12 delightful colors and I look forward to you all using it in your upcoming projects.  Photos coming soon on the supplies section of the website!
