Rosada is Bell's sister. I found great pleassure in creating Bell and was thrilled when request came through for Bell to have a sister. Rosada went on the loom as easily as Bell, once again I was surprised that this yarn that so commonly knots was sliding onto the loom like butter.
Rosada was quiet, and at first this bothered me. And then I realized that Rosada was giving me a gift. The gift of silence, physical and mental silence. I spend my days teaching high schoolers, which results in a day full of anything but silence. I spend the rest of my time with scarves chattering, wondering when it will be there turn to emerge. Understanding, that I already knew what she wanted to look like, she asked me to enjoy this rare experience of silence in my life.

Rosada was slow to tell me her name. She come off of the loom and I hit the ground running. I realized that she wasn't going to tell me her name until I once again melted into silence. And so while Om My Yoga, in the midst of sun squats I heard her whisper "Rosada". She gently whispered this to me through the night, reinforcing that was to be her name. And begging me to always remember the moment of silence that she brought into my noisy life.
