Date change for our Open Day from October to 5th Dec. 2020
🧶
5th Dec.......
🧶
We know many of you reading this would love to attend but are outside of Victoria and with a chance that border restrictions might not have eased, that might not be possible.
🧶
However, we really hope that you Melbournians can come to join us then which is why we have moved the date. 🤞
So save your pennies, get out your diary and book in a day of fun at the mill.
🧶
We will be having the amazingly talented Shelley @spincushions on hand as well as the wonderful Tom @tarndie
🧶
There will be talks, mill tours and demonstrations so stay tuned. (And all in a COVID safe manner!)
🧶
MORE DETAILS TO FOLLOW!!!! 😊(Please note not the 7th Dec as previously mentioned!!!)

Linking- this is how ours works 😊 If you ever wondered how the seams of a jumper you bought are done or sleeves attached... this is one of the methods.
We will be making #fullyfashioned garments to reduce waste and therefore to keep in line with our vision- to make garments ethically and sustainably 😊

Yeah! Shearing season has began 🤩
For us as a mill this is one of the most exciting times as from here our yarns begin.
🧶🧶
These fleeces are so incredibly soft... photos just can’t do them justice.

Getting ready to make more Eva & Henrietta yarn 🧶
Both are a polwarth/ alpaca blend.
.
Fibre is fully traceable- the polwarth is from @Tarndie and the alpaca from Ambleside Merino & Suri Stud.
.
Eva is a DK/ 8 ply yarn and Henrietta Fingering/ 4ply
We have seen some amazing projects done in recent months. 🥰
