I have been a Dharma Trading customer for over 20 years and your products have never disappointed. 
 
I grew up in southwest Colorado and used to travel to the Indian reservations with my mother, who was a buyer for a trading post. That was my first introduction to the glorious world of textiles, as I watched the Navajo women spin and patiently weave their beautiful rugs. Once out of college, I took up weaving to satisfy my creative side; that was over 30 years ago! During that time, I focused on clothing, and as I experimented, I found that I wanted a larger variety of yarn colors than were available. Dharma had everything I needed to delve into the world of dye! I use the Procion dyes for natural fibers and the Jacquard dyes for my wool. And now, I have the honor of teaching elementary students about the world of fiber and letting them play with the Jacquard silk dyes on blank scarves from Dharma.
