We make stuff. All the time. We are not constrained to solitary titles like "knitter," "quilter," or "basket maker," because we want to do it all. We are curious researchers and doers and fibery stuff is our primary medium. 

This online journal is the back-and-forth conversation about out projects, inspirations and home-tending. We plan to chronicle our creative escapades here, as we are fascinated by the diverse and incredibly talented crafting community on the web. We hope to dip our toes in that inspiring pool, learn and share, make and tell.

We also make things to sell, and Duo Fiberworks grew out of our desire to offer carefully designed knitting and sewing patterns as well as appealing natural crafting materials and kits. The items for sale are all available through our etsy store.

We live on small rural Kentucky farms and love our progressive community, where we ended up after both graduating from Berea College. We are originally from Eastern Pennsylvania and as such will always have a soft spot for hex signs, good pizza and Rennigers Flea Market. 

We are inspired by the Waldorf school's aesthetic tradition, early Martha, Rugosa roses and the smell of freshly cut lumber.

Between the two of us we eventually want to: build a coracle, make split white oak baskets (from scratch), build an earth oven and write a book.  We will of course keep you, dear reader, posted.

We like wool, our kids (2 boys each), good bread, tidy gardens and thrift stores. 

We don't like margarine, tapered jeans, library overdue fines or blue-ink pens.
