I have been a long-time fan of Amy Small, the owner and creator of Knit Collage<\/a><\/strong>! Amy’s yarns are so unique and immediately identifiable as they are unlike any on the market with their beautiful blend of colours and touch of whimsy. I have had the pleasure of working with some of her dreamy yarns with the projects pictured below: the Pom Bomb Hat<\/a><\/strong> and Dash Shawl<\/a><\/strong> (click the projects to see my previous blog posts about them). Amy started Knit Collage in 2010 as she fell in love with hand spinning. Taking inspiration from the places that she has traveled to such as India and Hong Kong, she continually challenges herself to come up with new colors and spinning techniques. All the Knit Collage yarns are dyed, carded, and spun in Punjab, India by a team of women who Amy taught. Amy also has a weekly podcast called “Collage Creative<\/a><\/em><\/strong>” in which she interviews women and men in the creative field who are living life on their own terms, uncovering their motivations, daily routines, and practices. I was thrilled that I could participate in the Fall\/Winter 2018 Knitalong as I had my eye on a certain design that looked right up my alley!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
