Kara Perpelitz is a Master Spinner (2017) and Fibre Artist who has lived in some part of Saskatchewan her entire life. When she first discovered hand spun yarns over 15 years ago, she certainly didn’t see it becoming a passion. This passion has led to writing, teaching, and creating art out of yarn. This passion for yarn lead to passion for fibre work in general. She explores the concept of place and connection through fibre arts, using manipulations such as spinning yarn, felting, dyeing, printing, sewing and more.
