Here's a little intro from the Spun Monkey herself!

The Spun Monkey Fiber Shoppe is a one-mama biz in semi-rural southern Vermont. I live with my man, my little man, a sweet and tiny cat, and a flock of fabulous chickens in a sprawling olde farmhouse.

I purchase fibers from small family farms that use humane practices and from other indie artists with the same concern for animal welfare. My joy is in creative experimentation, and the fiber is my playground, so you will see a variety of yarn styles and incarnations of felt-work offered in my shoppe. I am honored and delighted to have my work represented with all the other fabulous artists at the Cloverhill table!
