Ann has been studying and applying color theory and fiber arts techniques for decades, beginning with a studio art degree and continuing through over 15 years of designing, writing, and teaching in the fiber industry. Knitting, mending, dyeing, sewing, and piecing—she uses all her skills to inspire her students in her laid-back workshops and presentations.
