By Range

We are an independent women-owned business making yarns and fibre tops in our small scale, worsted spinning Mill in North Devon (one of only a handful still operating in the UK).

We use predominantly vintage machinery that we have lovingly restored and maintained to create wonderful artisan goods using a hands-on approach to production. All our yarn ranges are blended and designed by the Mill Folk, inspired by the natural world around us or their interests in art, music and nostalgia.
