We are hosting Rita Petteys of Yarn Hollow.  As I have stated before, Rita is an amazing dyer of yarn.  We are fortunate to carry her sock yarn and shawl kits.  And soon we will also add her flats for the Baby Surprise Jackets.



Stop by and chat with Rita.  She will be displaying her vast array of hand dyed yarn and will be available to talk to you about her process of combining color.

Rita will also be with us on Saturday, the 20th, to teach a class on using color.  See the description below for more information.

Make sure you visit the other participating shops, meet other award-winning artists, sample Leelanau Count wines, receive a stamp and enter to win a $250 Village Shopping Spree.

Do you wonder which colors go together? Want to learn how to refine your color sense? Why do some color combinations work better than others?

We'll be discussing the color wheel, shades, tint tones, and how they all fit into dyeing, knitting, spinning and carding.

This  class will help fiber artists hone their color skills through the concepts of hue, value, shade/tint/tone, color undertones, etc.  Tools available will be the color wheel, gray scale, and various photos and books to examine. There will also be yarn on hand with which to  work.
