This Border Leicester Wool is spun at Blue Mountain Farm & Fiber Mill with only Crown Hill Farm’s fibers from our mindfully-raised sheep — Ruth & Isaac. This is their Lambswool so the first shearing from them, making it extra special.

I've dyed these skeins with colors from our natural dye gardens and foraged on Crown Hill Farm property. Hearthside is made from Sulphur Cosmos harvested throughout the summer and fall and then dried to use for dye.

This radiant, fiery color is just the warmth we need on cold northern winter days. Enjoy the range of hues that comes from these flowers by adjusting the pH in the dye. The yellows, oranges and reds remind me of sitting by the fireplace all cozy and warm.

Due to the nature of natural dye, there may be slight variations in color throughout a skein.

Everything from Crown Hill Farm are Heirloom varieties and Heritage breeds, sustainably and mindfully grown with respect to land, plants, animals and soil.
