YARN/FLEECE DYEING WORKSHOP

Patricia Farley & Knit One

Patricia has been happily making art wear in her studio for over twenty years.
 A largely self-taught artist, she has been creating with her hands for as long as she remembers.
She grew up in Michigan and graduated from Goucher College in Baltimore, studying
English and Art History. She worked in publishing, retailing and social work before
 following her passion for textiles.  Patricia learned weaving from Rose Bank at the
 Center for the Arts in Pittsburgh, and after thirteen years creating woven garments, she
made the transition to surface design. Her work with color and pattern became more
 spontaneous and direct. Her garment designs became more personal ten years ago when
she designed the shirt she always wanted to wear. The FARLEYFARLEY label was born.
