Anatomy of a Cowl

Farm Grown - this cowl began its life on the backs of our beautiful Coopworth ewe, Havva, and our big guy Moe.   Havva and Moe were sheared and their wool was gently hand-washed. Havva's wool was then hand-dyed, but Moe's was left in its natural shades of brown. Their wool was then hand-picked, carded, hand-spun and plied. It is hand-knit on large needles to produce a lovely, light but very warm chunky cowl. 
From sheep to cowl... from our field to your home...

In the Fiber Room

Here's a peek inside the fiber room... some hand spun yarn, some wool locks solar-dyed with cosmos flowers and a new project underway with some of our mill-spun yarn. The white is from the Border Leicester crosses and the grey from Poseidon.
