Insubordiknit is a one-woman handspinning operation juggled and struggled on a daily basis by artist and fiber aficionado Jacey Boggs, and headquartered in the greenish Lauraville neighborhood of Baltimore, Maryland.
Jacey has an insatiable appetite for knitting. Insubordiknit yarns are spun with knitters in mind – even the wildest of art yarns is constructed with attention to stability and durability.
Jacey is an animal-hugging vegan. Insubordiknit animal-fiber yarns are spun from humane, farm sanctuary fibers. All are handpainted using acid color/light fast dyes.
Jacey employs only quality apparatus. Insubordiknit yarns are spun on a folding Lendrom and/or an Ashford Traditional, with batts carded on a Strauch Petite.
Sometimes Jacey needs a hand. Insubordiknit yarns are sometimes wound, weighed, packed, invoiced, labeled, counted, and otherwise fondled by either or both of the following: Jacey’s he-man partner, a strapping, bearded, tattooed rocker with a quick wit and rippling musculature (okay, he’s writing this), and Jacey’s young son, a tow-headed boy genius with an iron will and the face of a dewy baby fairy.
Insubordiknit yarns have been featured in Bust Magazine (3 xs), Knitscene, and Yarn Market News, as well as the silver tongues of spinners and knitters nationwide.
The entire Insubordiknit operation (such as we are) loves to have you around!
