Through out the years we have sold our work through Art and Craft galleries and Yarn stores.

We spent many years on the road selling our work at large craft fairs and fiber art shows.

 Fiber tools have always been our primary product. We always display our tools with yarn for our customers to give the tools a try, and in this way we were able to learn from many thousands of crocheters just what they thought of the function of each individual tool. We owe them great thanks for their help. The result is what we hope is a beautiful tool with a design refined over twenty years.

Our metalsmithing technique is inspired by the

"Celtic Revival Movement"

and the
work of the ancient Celtic and Norse
smiths of Bronze Age Northern Europe. 

First I heat solid Sterling Silver, or 14 Karat Gold until it's red hot,

 then I hammer it on an anvil into its own unique shape.

While it's still red hot, I twist the
handles into an unlimited variety of
patterns.

I then hot-forge a table at the
proper balance point.

Using the tools and
techniques of fine jewelry-making,
I hammer the shaft to the proper
gauge and cut, file and shape the
hook. They are all about six inches long.

The size (B through K) is stamped
into the bottom of the table.

I mark it "Sterling"

and sign the piece.

I hand-buff the entire tool using
different compounds
to a mirror finish so the
yarn glides easily across it.

They are bright and attractive,
as well as pleasant to touch and hold.
