Jacquie Omi (Omi = Grandma in Galician) often sits outside on the patio of the Summerland Permaculture Project near Malacatos, Loja, Ecuador, South America. Typically, she draws inspiration from nature. In the radiant sunlight. Usually, she selects two or three colors of natural yarn to design and create something. She is an expert fiber artist and a retired professor of exceptional students. She encourages the natural touch of native yarns to ease stress from anxiety, pain, depression, isolation, grief, fear, and other physical or emotional challenges, as well as the assurance that the hands are on natural products. Each hand-crocheted item is made from strong yet soft natural fibers. All her work invites you to touch, smell, twist, stroke, or handle in various ways, and to pack it into a small space, only to unpack it and renew your ecologically conscious lifestyle.
