Welcome to Woolen Violet, I am Nicholene (Nikki). A fiber artist, herbalist, mother, beekeeper & gardener nestled at the edge of a forest in the Appalachian mountains.

I weave handmade cloth and embroider floral sweaters, made with love and care in my home studio. Much of the fiber I use in my woven cloth is sustainably sourced from local sheep or repurposed yarn. Vintage and pre-worn sweaters are reclaimed to be adorned with wool, embroidering flowers and woodland themes. Adding a bit of whimsical charm to the wardrobe.

Inspired by the flora, forests, waterways and gardens of these lands, I strive to create beautiful and functional fiber goods. Joyfully creating special heirlooms to be cherished, loved and worn. Bringing warmth and comfort.

I hope you enjoy my small collection of fiber goods.
