  • 100% Shetland Lamb’s wool

  • 2 ply Sport weight
  • wool grown and naturally dyed in Ohio, custom milled in PA
  • It's really beautiful!

This yarn is next-to-skin soft, with slightly muted jewel tone colors.

The wool for this yarn comes from Ten Cat Farm , owned by Cara and Cricket: "We are a small, family owned and operated sheep farm in Eastern Ohio, focused on quality fiber breeds. We raise a mixed flock of happy, pastured sheep and are proud to offer a range of wool fleeces, pasture raised lamb, and registered stock."

I purchased raw fleece, skirted it to remove chaff and junky wool, before sending to a small PA mill for processing.  Once spun, the skeins were washed and naturally dyed in Ohio.

Minor bleeding may occur on first wash. Each skein is unique, purchase multi-skein projects together & alternate rows. 

Colors are shown as accurately as possible but monitors will vary.

Wash by hand in cool water then dry on flat surface.  Using a neutral pH wool wash is recommended. Examples are Orvus, Ecover and other liquid dishwashing detergents, various wool washes. 

 Avoid exposure to strong, direct, prolonged light.


Frequently Asked Questions

Where do your yarns come from?

At present, yarns come from the US, Britain and Canada. Bit by bit, I'm adding yarns made from small US farm wools. Some yarns are here for the long haul, others are limited editions.

Are natural dyes color fast and fade resistant?

There is an almost infinite number of natural dye sources but many are not light or wash fast. Flora Adora Fibers uses natural dyes that are known to have excellent to good light and wash fastness. Food grade mordants are used to bind dyes and permanently fix them to the fibers.

Both commercial and natural dyes will fade with extended exposure to strong light.

Washing yarns and finished projects in cool water with a pH neutral soap will further help maintain colors.
