Tina's Toasty Toes yarn is lovingly hand-dyed in Long Island, New York by Christina Federici. "I started out crocheting slipper socks for friends and family, then started a small Etsy store, before treating myself to a yarn dyeing class in London, England for my 40th birthday in 2018. As soon as I dyed my first skein, I was hooked (pun intended). Shortly thereafter I learned to knit, and now I dye up yarn for knitters and crocheters in my spare time. I have a full time job working in insurance on top of dyeing yarn. The name of my shop came from a friend's suggestion when I was making slipper socks, and since I dye mainly sock and fingering weight yarns, I kept the name for my dyeing business as well, and have fully given up on trying to sell things on Etsy."
We are thrilled to host Tina's toasty Toes this September 2nd - October 4th! Watch the Virtual Video Tour HERE!

Love Ewe Farm is owned by the McPhersons and is located in the beautiful rural setting of Montpelier Virginia, Hanover County, which is northwest of Richmond. Their house sits on 20 acres of farmland and it is where they decided to start breeding and raising Romney sheep.
Betsy is a retired nurse and empty nester, who is happy to have a flock to nurture and care for. Being a knitter, she adores ‘growing’ her own wool and turning their fleeces into beautiful yarn. Her husband Kevin grew up in northern Pennsylvania as a Future Farmer’s of America boy, and has loved farming from an early age.
All their yarn comes from Romney Sheep, formerly called Romney Marsh, a long wool, dual-purpose breed, originating in England. They are robust, hard-working sheep with a calm and gentle temperament. Each skein of yarn has the names of the sheep that the wool comes from.
