Most of my workdays I spend alone in my dye studio talking to myself. So, when I get the opportunity to spend a day with other yarn lovers, it's a treat!

Mama Gwen loved this color and I gave it to her as a gift. During the next class, she whipped it up into a crocheted shawlette! I asked her if I could name this color after her and she said yes.
