Artist Bio: Cheryl Sheridan is a weaver, fiber dyer, and sock cranker. Her addiction to weaving began with a free floor loom on the side of the road. For the past three years, she has been operating The Barn Studio, which houses more than 20 looms for participants to drop in and create a one-of-a-kind handwoven piece. Cheryl has also offered guild presentations to the Huronia Handweavers and Kingcraft’s; spoken and demonstrated at the Simcoe County Museum, Simcoe County Arts & Crafts Association, and the Ontario Handweavers & Spinners 2019 Conference; participated as a demonstrator at blacksmithing events throughout the USA for the spouse’s program; been a guest speaker to the Thornton Historical Society; taught at the Canadian Crank-in Sock Knitting Machine Conference; and she continues to teach private lessons in weaving, fiber dyeing, and sock machine knitting. More recently, Cheryl has acquired a collection of circular sock knitting machines. Sock cranking…good for the sole!

Usage/Care Notes: Do not machine wash. Toss in bathtub with mild soap, and roll up your pants and take off your socks and stomp on your rug like making wine. Or, take outside and shoot the garden hose at the rug, or leave outside on a rainy/snowy day. Lay flat to dry. Vacuuming is fine if there is no fringe. Beat with broom outside if there is a fringe.
