We love wool with all its amazing properties. Not only is it natural, renewable, biodegradable, non-allergenic and breathable – if that wasn’t enough – it’s durable, flame retardant and sun safe. We love it and you will too!

Consistently thrilled with all the yarn I have purchased, thank you so much for your beautiful products. I'm an indie dyer and they dye up SO well too! Highly recommended.

I just wanted to let you know how amazing your Merino/possum yarn is. What a dream to knit with.
Managed a first place at the local A&P show and I think the yarn choice had
a lot to do with it. Keep up the good work!
Thanks, Claire

Your Possum yarn is absolutely amazing. I have been looking for this type of yarn for quite some time. Thank you for your super fast delivery. It came in just three days. I am looking forward to making a sweater with this beautiful wool. The Bluegum colour is perfect. Thanking you once again, and look forward to dealing with you again in the near future.
