News — shepherd's wool

I am so excited to announce a major line/color expansion for our shop in the upcoming months! It's so much fun to showcase the work of artisans and local suppliers. We just can't wait to bring you more! Up first, here's a list of what we will be adding from our existing suppliers: Blacker Yarns (expansion coming in the next 2-3 weeks) Swan 4-Ply, a soft merino fingering weight yarn. Tamar Lustre 4-Ply, perfect for lace shawls! Lyonesse, a mix of Falkland Islands merino/corriedale wool and linen. Westcountry Tweed DK, a slightly-felted tweed mix of local wools. Mohair Blend 4-Ply, which blends Hebridean...

We are excited to share a brand new free pattern for our beautiful Color Pop Shawl.                          Color Pop is a simple, but extra warm and cosy shawl made from four skeins of customer favorite Stonehedge Fiber Mill's Shepherd's Wool. The contrasting colored tips of the shawl keep it playful, but sophisticated. The seed stitch keeps it snuggly enough for the coldest weather. This shawl is oversized, 97"x 32". You can download the FREE pattern. We hope you enjoy this easy, comfortable shawl all winter!

We love it when our customers make beautiful items from our yarns, and we like to feature the best of them here. Our customer Mara, who ordered two gorgeous skeins of Shepherd's Wool in Roasted Pumpkin and White, made this lovely Norwegian Star Earflap Hat from the yarns.   If you'd like to make the same hat, you'll need two skeins of Shepherd's Wool. We love the colors Mara picked, but as Shepherd's Wool comes in dozens of colors, you can really make this pattern your own. Make yourself something lovely today, send us a photo, and we'll happily feature it!...
