YarnGarden & Zen Yarn Interview

How long have you been dyeing yarn?

Yarn Gift Bouquets is a sister site to ZenYarnGarden.com and all yarns for the yarn gift bouquets/baskets/boxes are lovingly handpainted by Roxanne of Zen Yarn Garden who has been handdyeing yarns since late 2005 and full-time since January of 2007.


What motivates you?

Colour is the biggest motivator for handpainting yarns - it keeps a handpainter going back to the dye pot over and over!



What is your favourite product you have ever made?

Our yarn bouquets - we love how they turn out each time and what a wonderful and fun way to receive yarn! We also have a nice assortment of cards and DPNs to compliment and fill in your yarn bouquet!



Have you ever participated in a secret pal swap?

No - this is our first time and we're excited to offer something unique for everyone - we can ship the yarn bouquets/baskets/boxes direct to your secret pal and if you have other items to include, ship them to us and we'll include them with your order - no more running around to a million stores to gather your items - we'll send them all from here!



Advice to aspiring artists:

Always follow your muse - it will take you places!
