Stories from Our Yarn Producers
Here at The Woolly Thistle we encourage woolly wanderlust and share information about where the wool was grown and milled. We specialize in finding yarn made at the source whether that be on wild Scottish islands, or in the bucolic Devon countryside. We are passionate about yarns with a story!
WoolDreamers
Ramón and his team at WoolDreamers has reclaimed the use of Spanish Wool. We are delighted to support this worthy cause by bringing you the beautiful and natural yarns made from Spanish Manchego and Merino sheep.
Ullcentrum Öland
Ullcentrum collects Swedish wool from big and small farms on Öland and in the south of Sweden transforming it into beautiful yarns while taking care to protect this natural material and an ecological way of life.
Armscote Manor
Armscote Manor, in South Warwickshire, England, is the home of a conservation flock of Portland Sheep and a smaller flock of Black Welsh Mountain Sheep. From these soft fleeces we get natural colored, soft yarn!
