BossysFeltworks's Profile

Bio

In the Spring of 2006, three Orcas Islanders gathered the necessary ingredients: a heap of wool, copious quantities of imagination, and four enthusiastic product-testers under the age of five (as well as three supportive though slightly bewildered husbands). And so the adventure in wool -- washing, picking, carding, dyeing and finally felting -- began!

The premise of Bossy's Feltworks is to bring natural, unique and handmade toys and decor to children and adults alike. We take great pride in being a homegrown business....from its beginning in the sheep pasture to selling our wooly goods to Bossy fans at the local farmer's market.

Our collective:
Amy Lum: needle felter, shepherdess, bookkeeper, packaging & shipping
