Tina Newton

By day, Tina is a colour chemist and a bit of a chroma-savant.  She loves her family, friends, colour and fiber in that order.  Her love affair with all things yarn started with spinning.  Soon after, she began dyeing her own roving and discovered not only a talent but a passion.  She then began translating her fiber knowledge and color theory from her own hand-spun onto mill-spun yarns and Blue Moon Fiber Arts was born.  Tina has a fertile imagination and the practical creativity to support it.  This energy is contagious and inspiring.  She loves sharing her vision and working with others.  (She also might have a bit of an obsession with socks.)
