#WeStandWithOrlando

Thank you to everyone who helped us raise money for the Somos Orlando foundation! We raised a respectable $739.00 through our sales of the colorway Roy G Biv. This money will help the victims and family members of the horrific tragedy in Orlando who were impacted by the mass shooting. It will make sure that language is not a barrier to those that are in need of help. We are so proud to be able to help out in such a meaningful way! Thank you all!

Thank you National Parks and Recreation Club Members!

This has been one of the most succsessful clubs we have ever run. The colors were out of the park amazing and the addition of our Sample Only Club seems to be a big success. We hope that the club members were as excited as we were with every shipment.

If you have never participated in one of our clubs you should check us out. You can feel the energy and excitement in the club forum on Ravelry. Our final installment of the “National Parks and Recreation” packages just shipped and the “I GOT MINE” posts will be starting to pop up. The spoiler threads are another great way to feel the excitement and to take a peek at the club exclusive colorways you have been missing out on.

Twisted was started in 2005 as a way to help support my family while I was a stay-at-home mom until I went back to work. Eventually I realized I was at work. I think it's safe to say that Twisted is going to be around for a while! I was lucky to start selling my handspun around the time Etsy was catching on. I learned a lot about yarn and knit fabrics and what I wanted them to look like. This information was crucial to the development of my current process. Soon I was selling lots of striping sock yarn (mostly Arial and Duchess). Demand grew and so did Twisted. Aggie came to work with me. She could skein so precisely and measure dyes so accurately! (I still miss her. But she is now a stay-at-home mom and volunteer for animal rescue and I wish her well!) While she was here we moved to our current studio space and switched to our own website. My mother, Anne, is even more experienced with computers than she is with knitting (very!). She helped a ton with the new site which allows for more options, customization and flexibility. She also does our sample knitting and lots of random yarn and computer tasks. My husband does the books and washes the yarn. Both of our kids help out as their busy schedules permit. I love having a family business! I was lucky to start selling from my own site about the time Ravelry was catching on. I think that might be the magic ingredient to my small business success! Thank you Casey and Jess! As much as I love striping sock yarn, I was longing to move in a new direction: Evolutions. This had been part of my master plan from the beginning, but sock yarn kept me busy until I couldn't hold it in any longer. Then I really needed more help! Anne Bohl joined the team and added her style and skills to the mix. She quickly became indispensable and is now a partner in the business. We are both so grateful for the opportunity to be able to put our families first while helping support our families and interact with the lovely yarn community! Thanks to all of you for making this possible! The Twisted Studio was housed in the servant's quarters of my 150 year old Italianate home for seven years until we were bursting at the seams. We are now located around the corner in a great store called Kean's - a crafter's paradise that has been run by the same family for nearly 100 years. It is the cutest store around and we are lucky to have enough space there to do the dyeing for our webstore as well as a small but beautiful retail spot. So come see us, we'd love to meet you face to face! See store hours, address and contact info here. Cheers! Meg
