Our Process
Begins with the finest merino raised on ethically-based and mulesing-free farms located in Argentina, Uruguay, and Peru. Our Bluefaced Leicester wool and Mohair/Silk are raised and processed in the United Kingdom.
Every skein of yarn is handled with the utmost care. We begin by soaking the yarn in a citric acid bath to prepare the fiber for dyeing. We use non-heavy metal acid dyes for our colorways and speckle each skein by hand. Once the dye has been fully exhausted into the yarn, we leave it to cool overnight to ensure that all the speckles have soaked into the wool. To make sure every skein is clean, we soak and rinse the yarn in a fragrance-free wool wash with added lanolin to ensure the yarn is soft and squishy. It is then hung to dry, skeined, labeled, and packaged with the greatest of care. It truly is a labor of love from the beginning to the end.
