Thetis Grown Hand-Dyed Yarn and Spinning Fibre
Loads of island grown and hand dyed fresh colours of yarn and roving are available for sale now. I have a small flock of fibre sheep raised here on Thetis and I partner with my friend who farms on Pender. Together, we send our mostly BFL, Cotswold, Romney fleeces to a mill to be made into yarn or roving and when it comes back, I hand dye it.
This is 100% wool yarn. We breed for softness and lustre and the mill spins a beautiful soft spun lopi yarn as well as 2 ply worsted weight yarn. I also have 100% Dorset roving from a farm in the interior.
My colours are soft and vibrant, and each dye lot is unique.
I will have my season's offerings at the Thetis Marina Restaurant on December 4 along with lots of locally made art cards and Keya White's Thetis Island stickers.
Please stop by and have a look on Saturday!
Thank you for your interest,
