True2Ewe ..... Truly Unique
True2ewe began in 2006...
We welcomed our 5th baby into this world. Each new life has beckoned me to look beyond what I am used to, to create, to stretch myself and be inspired. During those winter months of baby snuggles and piles of squishy yarn the inspiration for True2Ewe grew with each stitch, with each completed pattern. My desire for yarn that was pure, safe for my youngest ones to wear softly against their skin, and for the creations made out of that yarn to be true to my own style, to be unique. It wasn't about modern or traditional, it was about colors and creations that could be customized. I started designing yarn colorways that were one of a kind and that were true to the creation the yarn was being knit into. Matched beautifully!
True2Ewe, the name, was formed. And so began the journey to form the business behind the name.
As a SAHM, now 8 children, with a passion for fiber art; I took hand spinning wool, dying, knitting and designing wool creations for my own children, and turned it into a business I adore. What started out of necessity to clothe my own cloth diapered baby in fine merino diaper covers, is now a business of designing and knitting for children and adults of all ages.
Everything about wool fiber speaks to me organic, warmth, nature, and beauty all wrapped into one.
And just as the fiber speaks, the lifestyle speaks even louder. We recently took our fiber and farm passion and planted roots in the fertile soil of the gorgeous Willamette Valley, Oregon. Buying farm land, starting the restoration of our century old farm house, and filling our 3 story, 3 generation barn with precious farm animals.... the journey continues.
It's so much more than just a business or just one person. This is our family, and we are excited to welcome you into our journey and to learn, visit, experience a part of our True2Ewe farm. If that's in the form of something hand-knit, then know that everything created, holds it's own uniqueness. Every knit item, and every design we create, is made with love.
Knitting will always be the heart of True2Ewe, but in the coming years we are going to offer so much more.
We are growing fiber lambs, we will be creating a fiber mill within the walls of this amazing barn, and True2ewe Designs, patterns, will be available for sale so you can take part in passing on these creations in your own home. Fill those baskets with organic wool goodness, and cherish each stitch you put your own labor of love into. What makes this more than a business, is that it's a way of connecting with all of you. And that's what brings us the most joy.
