TogetHER Spotlight: Meet Horsenround 🧶

We've got another spotlight featuring one of our incredible TogetHER group members!

 

The purpose of our TogetHER group is for members to find connections, advice, encouragement and community with fellow women in business and allies. 

 

Today we're featuring @Horsenround !! 💕

 

Tell us about your business!

 

Horse 'n' Round Studio is all about fiber arts and education. I spin, knit, crochet, weave, felt, and more, and I love to share the benefits of working with natural fibers and with the animals themselves. We have 5, no, 8 Icelandic and Shetland sheep (since we just added 3 more this fall) on 5 acres. I hold individual classes, mainly for spinning, but we have also had homeschool groups out, as well as other visitors, to learn about skills, managing the animals and land for the best fibers (and gardening), and shopping from our small studio retail space. We also have virtual visitors ordering and reading online from all around the world. We are also starting to venture back to shows and have an exciting (but safe) fall schedule lined up.

It definitely isn't for everyone! And I'm also really fortunate to have a supportive husband who tolerates, understands, and sometimes even feeds the crazy. 😁
