12 Days of Customer Photos – 2025 Blog Post
For over 30 years, we have had the privilege to supply high quality yarns to you in the artisan community. As we ship out each order, it is a bit like sending our children out into the world to become new and interesting creations! And we like to hear from our kids to see what they are up to!
As a result, for the last three years, we have put together a social media series we call “12 Days of Customer Photos.” We ask you to submit photos of designs that you have created with our yarns. It is always inspiring and absolutely one of our favorite times of the year! We love seeing the projects you’ve created! Not only do you inspire us Lunatics, but by letting us share your photos with the world, you inspire the whole community! Let’s look at this year’s submissions!
The First Day
Peggy Koeppel submitted this photo of her Doubleweave Shawl. For this project, she wove with 20/2 Tubular Spectrum mercerized cotton yarn. Look how those colors pop!
The Second Day
Karen Driscoll wove these 2 towels on two separate warps. For both towels, she used our American Maid™ naturally colored unmercerized yarn. The first picture is a 4-shaft Huck Lace pattern with stripes of all the American Maid™ colors. The second picture is an 8-shaft twill block pattern with Natural White and Light Brown yarns. Those towels with soft natural colors are beautiful!
The Third Day
Ann Redmond made these Summer Garden Kitchen Towels out of 8/2 Maurice Brassard cotton yarn! We love her color placement and Twill Stripes pattern! Those colors really sing!
The Fourth Day
Check out this colorful Wall Hanging created by Lois Stevens! She used 5/2 Tubular Spectrum™ mercerized cotton yarn and a pattern by Janet Dawson. What a beautiful way of bringing all these colors together Lois!!!
The Fifth Day
Robin Lynde knocked it out of the park with her Sunflower Shawl, made from 5/2 Tubular Spectrum™ mercerized cotton yarn! Her color blending of these bright colors makes the fabric look so warm and inviting!
The Sixth Day
Linda Gettmann went wild weaving these Turned Taquete Towels with 10/2 Tubular Spectrum™ Mercerized Cotton Yarn. We love the uniqueness of each one. Thanks for the inspiration, Linda!!
The Seventh Day
Beth Wintroub went beyond the basics of creating a color gamp! She went and turned it in to a pillow! Here she is proudly showing it off at the Boulder Guild sale. Great job Beth!
The Eighth Day
Janene Driscoll took the Double Rainbow Doubleweave workshop with Jennifer Moore and created a beautiful sampler on 16-shafts. She went a step further and created this lovely bag. It is currently on display at her local art gallery. This bag is stunning!!
The Ninth Day
Jinks Hunter doesn't let small spaces stop her from weaving! She wove this awesome Gradient Napkin on her rigid heddle loom as a gift for her guild's napkin exchange! 10/2 Tubular Spectrum™ mercerized cotton yarn on her rigid heddle loom. A little over 20 people participated in the event and all went home with smiles and a napkin made just for them!
The Tenth Day
Michael Bergen wove these matching suspenders and instrument strap with purpose. He is a part of a dance troupe, and their colors are pink, raspberry, and white so he made the instrument straps and suspenders with Tubular Spectrum™ Mercerized Cotton Yarn in 5 Red, White, and Coral. Nicely done Michael!!
The Eleventh Day
Jaimee Veronneau Roberts knows her way around color placement!! She wove these visually stunning napkins out of Tubular Spectrum™ mercerized cotton yarn. Her inspiration was her children's favorite colors, family order, and her kitchenware!
The Twelfth Day
Penny Garner is weaving a tessellating triangles pattern with a twist: She used a 10/2 Gray Matter Gamp as her warp, and 5 Blue Green as her weft yarn. The combination makes the emerging triangles pop! That warp is stunning!
Bonus Day
Bonus Day! Michael Sebald was excited to weave with hemp and cotton to revamp his kitchen table with bright colors! With two Bumberet Bitty Bits Napkin Kits, plus a little extra Lyte Hemp™ yarn, he was able to make placemats, a table runner, napkins, and mug rugs! Awesome job Michael!
