Hi! I’m Keri, the owner and creative mind behind Youghiogheny Yarns. I’m an indie dyer and pattern designer. As a young girl I learned to sew, crochet and quilt from my grandmother who ran a custom sewing and upholstery business from her home. In 2008 I taught myself to knit. It’s safe to say the desire to create runs in my blood. I’ve been giving private lessons in crocheting, knitting, and sewing for several years at my home and studio, and I’m thrilled to be teaching at the festival this year.
