We now have our own yarn label! The wool is raised at Cactus Hill Farm down valley from Leadville, then carefully chosen for high quality, then spun into yarn and roving ready to spin at The Fleece Factory, a small mill outside of Denver. Elise focuses on offering heritage breeds to showcase the great variety of natural wool in texture and color. The Wenslydales are her current favorites!
