Tune in this week for a lovely chat with Lexi Boeger, 33, of Placerville, Calif. Lexi is the artist behind Pluckyfluff, a spinning site that celebrates non-traditional, hand-spun yarns and techniques. She is also the author of “Intertwined: The Art of Handspun Yarn, Modern Patterns and Creative Spinning” a new release from Quarry Books. She previously self-published “Plucklyfluff Handspun Revolution.”
During this episode, Lexi retraces the creative journey that led her to become a spinner of whimsical yarns containing shredded paper, recycled sari silk, ribbon, candy wrappers, and more. She also talks about “Intertwined” which serves as a guide book for fabulous spinning adventures and contains an abundance of projects to inspire readers to use handspun yarn to knit, crochet, weave and felt.
Even if you don’t spin, you’ll likely find this episode inspiring because Lexi’s approach to life and pursuing big crafty dreams is truly universal.
