Hi, I’m
Sara
I explore life as an artist, nature lover and mother. After 20 years in the photography business and 12 years in Montessori Adolescent education, the fiber arts have captured my passion. Over the last couple years I have had the pleasure of exploring and working with natural fiber which has catapulted me into a journey of regenerative living. Knitting and working with fiber allows me to savor the passage of time while being present to each moment. Great joy and peace has come from exploring this beautiful and creative medium.
Incorporating sustainable, regenerative practices is my goal on this fiber arts journey. We take care of our bunny, Patches, in our house, harvest her wool, spin the wool into yarn and knit the final art piece from that yarn. This is a cycle of garment-making that stays as close to home as possible with little waste and very little impact on the environment.
Once I began to knit I felt I could knit forever. My hands just know what to do and crave the making and producing. For this reason, in 2021 I started One Bunny’s Wool. I have been fortunate in expanding my journey into processing and spinning local alpaca fiber, knitting with cotton and growing flax. Creating one-of-a-kind pieces for my shop and doing commissioned work has brought me so much joy and satisfaction, and just confirms my belief that we can regenerate ourselves while transforming our connection to the garments we wear and love.
