Did you know we have our own amazing hand dyer right here in Alexandria?
Former fibre space ™ yarnista (and current instructor) Jackson Roe began hand-dyeing yarn in 2020 as a hobby, which soon turned into a full-time business creating captivating colorways:
I come from a fine arts background and have always had a deep love for color. I gravitate towards luxe variegated, lively speckled, and playful neutral colorways.
I draw my inspiration from things that spark joy. I love to read mysteries, fantasies, and romances, which show up in my collections. Childhood memories also influence my colorways, like summer camp and South Florida, where I grew up. I hope you find moments of happiness when you sit down with a skein from Stella Luna Fiber Co!
We’re delighted to welcome more Stella Luna Fiber Co. yarns to space! (Read more about Jackson’s yarn inspirations here!)
