On this episode of the Natural Dye Podcast we talked to Rin, the creator behind Modus Operandi Fibers. At one point Rin had a position as an epidemiologist but ultimately left the data-driven desk job to start Modus Operandi Fibers. Rin now focuses on producing beautiful naturally dyed yarns and fibers, sharing their passion for organic gardening, science, experimenting, and creativity along the way. Alongside MO Fibers Rin also provides resources to natural dyers on how to grow your own dye garden and use natural dyes through their education program Dirt + Dye. We hope you love Rin’s incredible journey as much as we do!
