YARNS

We stock both natural and dyed yarns in 4 ply, double knit and aran.  These include yarns commercially spun for us from the fleeces of our own sheep and from two local sheep farmers (see the about page) whose fleeces we buy and have commercially processed. These are generally undyed though we hope to supply small quantities of hand dyed yarn from time to time

In addition, we stock yarn from Blacker Yarns and John Arbon Textiles.  The yarns are British  breed specific and are sourced from  farmers known to the mills who are generally based in the West Country.  We also stock shetland wool and yarn direct from  Jamiesons of Shetland and  Jamiesons and Smith as well as a blend of shetland and blue faced leicester yarn produced in Yorskshire.
