Echo Mae and Heather Seevers are Northwest Yarns' co-owners, fiber arts designers, and teachers. When not shamelessly encouraging everyone to learn a fiber art, yarn-bombing the tree in front of their shop, or dreaming up ever so slightly geeky and/or tentacle-y knit patterns, Heather and Echo can be found exploring fiber arts trends, culture, and history to share. Echo also writes the popular Know Your Fiber blog for the Northwest Yarns website, an exploration of the history and culture surrounding the animals and plants used by fiber artists around the world.  When not at their shop, Echo and Heather can be found bonding with llamas, reading with dogs, and supporting the eventual domination of the world by hand crafters.
