Darlene began dyeing wool about 30 years ago\, searching secondhand shops for used wool. Not all the pieces were suitable\, so she learned to dye fabrics on her own. Over the years Darlene began selling her surplus of hand-dyed wool\, which led to forming her business\, Olympic Wool Works. Her newest focus is creating fabric collages from wool and other fabrics and exploring ways to include natural and plant-dyed fabrics in her future designs.
