Handspun Yarns

Make your projects stand out by using handspun yarn in natural fibres. The very nature of handspinning allows for a unique yarn every time, and endless possibilities with creativity.

From time to time we will stock handspun yarn in merino wool, rare sheep breed wool, silk, alpaca, cotton, bamboo, soysilk etc.

We can supply you with the yarn in skeins, or as centre pull balls ready for use.
