We are raising funds to get our neighbours' fleeces spun.  By pledging your support of any amount you are helping us to secure the future of wool production in this small local area.  If you are able to pledge £25 or more, you are pre-ordering yarn.

I could talk about sheep, and wool, for Scotland, and one of the things that has become very clear in recent chats is that local farmers want their wool to have a value in today's market.  
All too often, they spend more on getting it sheared than they are paid for it.  And some fleeces just get dumped on the farm.  It's such a waste of a very brilliant, natural product! 
As people who love their sheep, we want to show the world that our wool has value. 

​Could you help us to raise the lump sum that we need to commit to having this wool spun?
Your backing will provide the funds to process about 200kg of beautiful local fleece into amazing yarn.  The plan is to get a mix of yarns from the Natural Fibre Company in Launceston.  If we raise more - we can spin more!
My plan is to get the yarn spun into two beautiful products: a woollen-spun bouncy yarn, and a tougher worsted-spun yarn .  Some of the yarn will be hand-dyed by me, and some left in its natural un-dyed state.
Through the rewards we are offering in return for your pledges,  you will be able to receive our wool, either undyed or dyed (including some exclusive colours that will not be on general sale) as well as some exciting extras.
