About Mormor:
“It’s about legacy and tradition. It’s about people choosing to be together, chatting while we create something with our hands. It’s about natural fibers and sustainable farming. It’s about women and the stories we carry, the ones passed from our grandmothers and in turn, the ones we create and share with our children.
Mormor, the Norwegian word for Mother’s Mother, helps us bring this sentiment to life as we create beautiful hand-dyed unspun wool from sheep across Maine.”
Thyme Tile Felting Kits include:
Hand-drawn pattern on 100% wool.
Hand-dyed, unspun Maine wool in all the colors needed to complete the design
Basic needle felting tips & tricks plus instructions specific to each design
A color image of the finished tile
A durable and Eco-Friendly 5x5 foam felting block
Two 38-gauge triangle felting needles.

About Thyme Tile Felting Kits
There is no "US" without Mary Ann and Marty of A Wrinkle in Thyme Farm. My first fiber order came from their booth at MOFGA's Common Ground Fair after learning to wet felt spring tulips with my dear friend Amy. Our sheep were born at A Wrinkle in Thyme. We've taken part in shearing days at the farm surrounded by community, afternoons skirting wool with friends and family, and mornings learning to hand-spin. Mary Ann and Marty continue to share their wisdom of farming and fiber with all those willing to learn it. With so much joy and gratitude, I get to carry on a piece of their story by creating and offering Thyme Tile Kits at MORMOR.
