Like most of
us, when our children come home with a project, they seem to draw us
into their web of learning. Karen is no different. Karen’s love
of wool first started when her children became involved in 4H with
sheep as their project. It blossomed when a friend presented her
with her first spinning wheel at Christmas. Since then, there is
nothing Karen cannot do with wool from the growing (the sheep
actually do that, but Karen loves and cares for them), followed by
the processing which she lovingly does to the finished projects.
Karen and her husband own Mill Creek Fiber Farm in Lewiston, Montana
and she raises her own small flock of border leisters and merinos. Karen will be teaching
Needle Felting.
