So So SO SOOOFFFFTTTT!!! The ultra-fine Rambouillet is like a cloud in your hands.

Never super washed, the yarn in this collection has been naturally mordanted to lock in the color as much as possible. Spinning oils from the mill have been removed using plant based laundry soap. We then hand dye it ourselves using sustainably harvested plants, insects & food waste.

One skein = 3.5 bales of hay for the flock

(Our critters consume 14 bales of locally grown hay per day from October - May when our pastures are resting. Your support puts hay in the barn and employs both the Mitchell team and the local hay grower.) 

This item is from our new product line, AMERICAN FIBER.

The reason we decided to become a Yarn Company is to support the effort of bringing back American Fiber production. As a former interior designer Sherry knew all too well how many fabric mills had closed as a result of NAFTA and the increased importation of cheap labor and synthetic fabrics flooding the American market. The impact on rural North Carolina alone is devastating. Families' livelihoods GONE.
