Deep blush bulky weight boucle wool



Yarn specs: This is approximately 300 yds. of a commercial double ply heavy weight boucle yarn. I bought a lot of it to make a sweater, and I believe it is 100% wool, a superwash, I think. I am offering the remaining 300 yds. at $15 plus shipping. Color is a deep but soft red that I call "blush".

Some of our favorite natural fiber products





Here are some items that we love to make. The ones pictured are all in natural white, but we also make them in dyed colors. The problem is, like most hand-made items, they sell faster than we can make them, especially when you consider that the yarn is handspun, and fiber often comes from our own animals.

Angora rayon yarn


















This yarn is made of a fuzzy strand of white angora rabbit fiber plied with a shimmery strand of white rayon. They complement each other to give you the best of both worlds when it comes to yarn. You get the softness, fuzziness, and warmth of angora, plus the strength, shimmer and perfect drape of rayon. We use this yarn all the time for knitting, crochet, and especially for weaving. Offered at $12 per 100 yds. plus shipping. It's a great yarn.






Red Cone yarn SOLD


SOLD

Here is a cone of red yarn that weighs over two pounds. I think it is cotton, or else a wool/cotton blend, though I am not sure. It is a thin, lace weight yarn. I love to use it to ply with a strand of my wool or mohair. There is a ton of it on this cone. It would also work for machine knitting. Offered at $15 plus shipping.

Pink wool blend bulky weight yarn




This yarn is a medium pink in color, very soft, single ply, thick and thin texture. It is between a worsted and a heavyweight yarn, and knits up fast. It is made of wool with synthetic binder so that it won't felt when you wash it. It is a very nice and soft yarn .
