About Miss Babs and Veronica Ory
Babs Ausherman and the Miss Babs Team have been dyeing beautiful yarns in the mountains of eastern Tennessee since 2005. Miss Babs offers a wide variety of yarn bases from lace to chunky in a stunning range of colorways. Between their semi-solids, repeatable variegated colors (Babettes), and one-of-a-kind colors (Wild Irises), they hope to have the right color for your next project. Miss Babs loves seeing the colors that occur in nature and playing off them to create yarns that evoke the emotional impact of the natural world. You can read more about Babs Ausherman in a recent written interview online at CanvasRebel’s website here.
