Welcome. I am an established fiber artist specializing in handspun yarn and fiber arts using upcycled pet hair. Most of my work centers around custom yarn made with brushings from clients' pets (which they have saved over time); but occasionally I will have some fun and quirky fiber art for sale. Check back often to see what I've listed. If you've landed on my page, you must love and admire animals as much as I do, and share a deep connection with your pet. Thank you for stopping by to see what the buzz is about, and for considering me to work with you and your precious pet on a deeply meaningful project ~ Theresa

Yes! I'm accepting orders. I'm currently booking September 2018

    Help me reach more pet lovers!
    How did you hear about Nine Lives Twine?


​I love connecting with kindred spirits​
All media, booking, and appearance requests should be directed to theresa@ninelivestwine.
I'm available for spinning demonstrations, felting workshops, private and group instruction, consultations for custom pieces, and art installations.
I'm always thrilled to connect with people who love animals!

When I look into the eyes of an animal,
I do not see an animal.
I see a living being.
I see a friend.
I feel a soul.

Stories and wisdom to help your heart heal
Picture
Your stories of loving and losing your animal companions. What helped your heart to heal? How do you honor and pay tribute to them? Is there anything that you wish you had done before your animal passed (for example, paw prints, saving hair, etc) What helped you the most during your grief? What did you learn about yourself through your experience? Have you had experiences with your pet after death?
For some the process of sharing may be cathartic, so please, don't hold back. I'm here to learn from you and, together, build the foundation of what will be Entwined.
