thanks for visiting me at Wonderful World. my name is lori and i'm married to a goofy guy who always makes me laugh, and two kiddos who fill me with joy and make me giggle and beam with pride one moment, and pull my hair out the next. jasper turned 4 in december, and millie turned 2 in september. we live in the far northwest burbs of chicago, a mere 10 minutes from the wisconsin border.

alfabette zoope has served as a wonderful place and way to rekindle my love for doing crafty things that had gotten lost in the shuffle of work, kids, houses, and all that good stuff. i specialize in handpainted and kettledyed yarns -- mostly wool and wool blends -- as well as handbatiked and dyed clothing, and yarn/shirt or woolie/shirt sets. i am also open for limited customs -- please see my blog for an idea of what my list currently looks like.

i also work from home part-time for a longtime client in the music business doing web and cd cover design, html, fan club coordination, and fulfillment for his online store. i also occasionally design and/or build websites for friends.
