Auxanometer (carefully sound out! 5 syllables) is custom spun 100% bamboo yarn

 -100% bamboo, 4 ply, fingering weight, 400 yards/skein

-hand-dyed in Longmont, Colorado by fiber artist Jennifer Miller *two different kinds of bamboo fiber spun together provide great depth of color.

• perfectly spun, strong, not at all splitty
• best worked with a wooden or bamboo needle
• loved by weavers for both warp & weft
• spun for Theodora’s in Lewisville, Texas

Theodora was a 7th century empress of Byzantium. She was an artist, political leader, & influence on the early Christian church.Theodora’s logo is an existing mosaic portrait still seen in Ravenna, Italy.

Auxanometer is a device for measuring daily plant growth! I chose this name for the bamboo yarn because bamboo is sustainable, grows quickly, & is pesticide free!
