People we spin custom yarns for
An Caitín Beag (England)
We worked with Marna to design a special yarn for a year-long sock knitting adventure. The result was a no-nylon, high-twist, sturdy sock yarn to which Marna added colours designed for each sock in the pattern collection.
Cat and Sparrow UK (England)
We blend and spin several of Rachel’s bases including ‘Superhero DK’, ‘Rolling Stone Sock’ and ‘Toasty Aran’ which are then hand-dyed in a range of glorious colours.
Daughter of a Shepherd (England)
Rachel’s ‘Heritage’ and ‘Brume’ yarns as well as her 'Drover Sock' yarn are blended and spun by us. They all feature the wonderful Hebridean fibre that Daughter of a Shepherd is famous for.
Felt Fusion (England)
We blend and spin Shadow's custom bases 'Talamh Sock', a mix of British wools and Nylon, and 'Danu 4ply', a blend of Bluefaced Leicester, Romney, Exmoor Blueface and Silk for her here at the mill. She then dyes them up in her signature fun and bright colourways.
Fruity Knitting (Germany)
We're working with Andrea and Madeleine on developing their first-ever own yarn line, scheduled to be launched in 2026.
Marie Wallin (England)
Marie’s ‘British Breeds’ and 'British Breeds ARAN' yarns are blended and spun at our mill. The yarn is made from four different British sheep breeds: Bluefaced Leicester, Exmoor Blueface, Romney and Zwartbles.

The ‘Close’ no-nylon sock yarn base is custom-spun here in our mill with a blend of Devon Closewool, Exmoor Blueface and Zwartbles and hand-dyed in Germany.
Skein Queen (England)
We custom-spin the ‘Voluptuous’ and ‘Sonsie’ bases to which Rachel adds stunning hand-dyed colours.
Telling Yarns (England)
The ‘Resolute’ and ‘Steadfast’ bases were created to provide the perfect canvas for Beth’s literary-inspired colourways. They are complemented by 'Dark Friends' and 'Heart of the Dark', two light-grey / brown bases and 'Night Gathers' and 'Take The Black', two dark-grey bases.
Vaire Yarns / Sidi Spinnt (Switzerland)
Vaire's signature fibre and Este yarn is blended and spun here in our mill. The combination of Polwarth, Exmoor Blueface and luscious Silk is then plant-dyed by Sidia and her partners.
Woll-Habitat (Austria)
Woll-Habitat's 'Habitat No. 1' started as an anniversary yarn and has become a staple in their selection. It's custom-blended and spun out of Blueface Leicester, Exmoor Blueface and Zwartbles at our mill, and then hand-dyed with acid dyes by Katharina and with plant dyes by Mirja's Woolplay.
Wolverhalen (Netherlands)
'Rustic Sport', one of Wolverhalen's own and hand-dyed yarns, is custom-blended and spun here by us at the mill. It's dyed up in a glorious rainbow of colours that look wonderful on this light-grey base.

We custom-spin Jule's 'Heirloom' base in both 4ply and DK here at the mill. Jule then adds her signature warm, earthy colours through natural dyeing on those 100% Exmoor Blueface yarns.
