Kate Larson loves using fiber arts as a bridge between her passions for art and agriculture. Her fiber journey has led her to a year of study in England, a degree in Environmental Soil Chemistry, a tour of textile traditions in Estonia, and back to the farm where her family has lived for six generations. She keeps an ever-growing flock of Border Leicester sheep and teaches handspinning and knitting regularly in central Indiana and around the country. Kate manages the Spinner’s Connection Blog at spinningdaily.com and has published articles and designs in Spin-Off Magazine, Jane Austen Knits, and Knitting Sweaters from Around the World.
I love catching up with you here. It makes my heart smile to know you’re doing what you love back where we grew up…so many fond memories.
Leah! So good to hear from you. I hope you and your family are doing well.
Dear Kate – thanks again for a wonderful class at Arrowmont last weekend. I am inspired and encouraged. Can’t seem to find you or Julie on FB due to the vast number of people with your same names, but I’ll keep trying.
I just found you on Facebook and sent a friend request. It was great to meet you! I really enjoyed our weekend at Arrowmont. Hope to see you again sometime!
