Another day, another restock! 🧶✨ We’ve just received a fresh shipment from Custom Woolen Mills Ltd

Custom Woolen Mills is a small, family-owned and operated woolen mill near Carstairs, Alberta. They source their wool directly from farmers across Western Canada and through the Canadian Co-operative Wool Growers, then hand-sort it at the mill to ensure the best possible product.

Every step—from washing and dyeing to spinning—happens on-site using their antique wool-carding and spinning system. The result is yarn with a story and character you can feel. 🐑

We’ve also added a couple of new colours in the Mule 2-Ply (see above) and Prairie Soft Spun yarns just in time for the fall✨🍂

🧶Morning with Kate: All About Gauge
Understanding gauge is the single biggest key to making garments that fit the way you intend. An hour and a half in this workshop could save you many hours of wasted knitting!
