Resources

The pursuit of knowledge and skill is a journey, never a destination.  This page is dedicated to sharing elements of the journey that may be useful on your own.  It also offers ways to source materials, learn more, and connect with my work firsthand.  I will continue to add to this page as new resources arise.

Enjoy!

Supplies, Patterns, and Kits
loon kit

Project kits from Erindale Tapestry Studio for needle felting, crochet, and knit projects can be found in two great places:  via my Etsy Shop and the art and craft kits part of the farm’s e-store.  If all you are looking for are kits and you need them shipped, Etsy may be the preferred way to go as they have a built-in shipping calculator.  If you want to source additional supplies along with your kits or you’re picking up at our farm, use that route.  I can definitely ship a farm store order to you, I’ll just be in touch about shipping costs after packing your order.  The kits are excellent project starters and also make excellent gift for your fiber-loving family and friends!

NEW Tutorial permissions are now available via our farm’s e-store for download.  These include a link to the video with password as well as a suggested materials list and image of the project.  Have plenty of materials on hand and don’t need a kit?  This allows you to learn how to make a project at your own pace.  You can also use the links below to purchase materials separately.
