Hi, Knitters,
I'm ready to introduce my new adventure to you. It is called Barrett Wool Co. I'm so excited about my new yarn and pattern line. It has been a labor of love in the making for the past three years. If you are wondering about the name Barrett it comes from the B. in Susan B. Anderson. Barrett is my middle name.
I suspected you might be doing this. Congrstulations! Your yarn looks beautiful, and I love that it's American. I can't wait to try it. Best to you in this new endeavor. I'm sure you'll be very successful.
How fabulous?!?!!! I am thrilled with this news!! Congratulations to you!!! I will definitely be trying your yarn. The colors look amazing! You got me hooked on Quince and Co so I'm sure this yarn is going to be great as well. Such a wonderful new adventure for you and you get to work with your son!!! I wish you sooooo much success with this new adventure. P.S. you should have a podcast about it!!???!!!
Wow! Oh, Susan! Congratulations! I am so happy for you, your son, and your whole family! This is just the best news (and I always wondered what the "B" stood for- besides Queen B)! (That is said with so much love behind it, btw) :)
Congratulations on your new venture. I'm excited to see what else you have up your sleeve for your loyal followers. I have a question, if you were to translate the colors of the original sprite pattern into Barrett yarn colors, what would they be? Any thought of putting together kits? Thanks, BarbaraH
What an awesome accomplishment! Wow, you should feel so proud of having your own wool line. I love all the colours and with your creativity, the opportunities are endless :) Deb

Congrats on Barrett Wool! So excited for you and it wonderful to have a family business. Love your work since your Spud & Chloe days. One of my favorite knitter. Have your books. Love your patterns. I will love your yarn too. Best wishes to all your endeavors! -AW
Congratulations! Sovely lovely colors and the 2 weights currently are the ones I use most often. What breed(s) of American sheep are used to make your yarn?
tss818 ~ Hi, Thanks so much! The reason I picked those two weights is that those are the ones I use most often, too! The wool is 100% Domestic Columbia. Thanks for asking. susan
Congratulations on your new venture! I've been a huge fan since I walked into my LYS 10 years ago and said, "Help! Quick! I need a baby shower gift for a co-worker." The owner said she had a new book that was just the thing. She pulled out Itty-Bitty Hats, we found perfect yarn, and I made Marley. Huge hit! I've gone back to the book many times.
Then I found the video tutorials. Kitchener first. Another big help - knit off, purl; purl off, knit. For me it was genius. I could finally do it and remember.
And the yarn - fabulous colors, 100-gram skeins, American, my favorite weights too! Can't wait to try.
OMG your own yarn, that's amazing, so happy for you and us!!!
