Peek into the Creative Goddess Studio of Tara Swiger

by Goddess Leonie on May 28, 2010

Hola gorgeous Goddesses!

Today’s studio peek is into the creative goddess studio of Tara Swiger. I heart this pink haired maven of all things deliciously colourful & fibre-ish oh so much :)

1. What do you create?

I dye eco-friendly fiber and spin into tasty, colorful inspiration for knitters + other crafters!

Pixie Dust handspun yarn

Hemp Laceweight in Pomegranate

Leonie Yarn :: dooooooooooooood. yarn inspired by me??? colour me flipping delighted!!

2. Where do you create?

I do my computering at the local coffee shop in the mornings:

I do my fiber work in my upstairs studio, in my sweet little farmhouse:

with my trusty pup nearby:

And under the watchful eye of grumpy Andre:

On sunny days on my front porch:

3. When do you create?

Whenever I can! I spin in the afternoons, with the sun slanting into my studio or on the front porch:


Almost every day I put a pot of dye on as soon as I can and I write and think whenever I can, with my trusty notebook always on me!

4. Why do you create?

It can’t be helped!
I believe EVERY one is creative and that creativity can be expressed in a zillion different ways.
Sometimes my creativity comes out in building my business, sometimes it expresses itself in yarns and fibers, sometimes in my writing.
Allowing that creativity out, allowing it to play, brings me a sense of calm and peace and it ignites my passion for life!

Thank you so much Goddess Tara for the peek into your studio!

And if you are like me & love looking at wool but can’t knit… she has also created a Learn to Knit kit!

Yay! Thanks beautiful Tara!

Hello Lovelies,
How wonderful to have a Leonie yarn! So perfect!
