Forty-something fiber wrangler making a home between the Pacific and the Redwoods, I've found my people online. Look for me on Ravelry as velmalikevelvet and on Twitter as velmalikevelvet too!
My website, COLORBOMB Creations, your one-stop shop for handcrafted fiber goodies: handspun art yarns, hand-dyed spinning fibers with personality, handknit/crochet gifts, and sundry other color bombs of joy.
My blog, Velma's World Musings on life in the World o' Velma, behind the Redwood Curtain, land of wonderousness. Blogging on topics such as: Arcata, Humboldt, knitting, spinning, disc golf, sarcasm, and yes, bacon.
My SnB blog, Purl 'n Hurl

"Velma just created the most eclectic, divine, color saturated yarn for me by hand and I swoon every time I see this piece. Even my dog wants to play with it. Her sense of color and texture is amazing and her yarns are covetable beyond belief."
