Did you know?

Only at Orphaned Wool

Every pattern is designed by me, Kelly Kanyok, and sold exclusively on my Orphaned Wool website. A small selection of punch needles is available in my Etsy store, but my designs aren’t available in stores or through wholesalers.

When you shop Orphaned Wool, you’re supporting a women-owned small business and receiving an authentic, designer-created pattern.
