Yarn
We offer a single-ply, sport/DK weight yarn in natural colors, available in 4-ounce skeins and variable-weight cones. This yarn is wonderful for both knitting and weaving. It also felts beautifully for creating knit-and-felted items such as jackets, slippers, and bags.
We use environmentally safe methods to produce our products. All of our wool is washed using non-toxic, biodegradable detergent. At Green Mountain Spinnery the cleaned fleece is transformed into yarn, with only 100% vegetable oil used in the spinning process.
Yardage and Gauge:
260 yards per 4 oz. skein (1040 yards per pound), 14 wraps per inch

“A Gift From Talking God: The Story of the Navajo-Churro” DVD
Click video above to view 30-second excerpt.
To Navajo people of the American Southwest, “sheep is life.” The Navajo-Churro sheep is the original domestic breed that sustained the Navajo, Pueblo and Hispanic people for nearly 400 years. On the verge of extinction a generation ago, the Navajo-Churro is making a comeback for the Navajo. Used for both wool and as a source of lean, healthy meat, the breed has been recognized by the Slow Food Foundation for Biodiversity. This 30-minute film offers a portrait of the rarely seen traditional Navajo lifestyle.
Half of all proceeds from this purchase go to Slow Food USA.
