While their process begins with fibers, the fibers they use begin with a relationship between animals and farmers. These hardworking Americans go against the grain and follow the ancient tradition of carefully raising and tending animals that grow this renewable resource on their backs. The farmers do so out of a love of animals, a dedication to the environment, and in hope that there are still people out there who want to say "no" to an acrylic sweater in favor of something natural. They have been working with them for years processing fiber for them, and now buy fiber from them in hopes that they will keep tending their adorable herds of fluff, and let them turn the fruits of their labor into something brand new.
They work predominantly with wool, alpaca, and mohair - all fibers which are collected after a sheep, alpaca, and goat are shorn once a year (twice a year for mohair goats). Every fiber has a unique story and origin, and they make sure that they know them. They work directly with farmers, as well as sourcing fiber, and sometimes yarn, from organizations that have been pooling these natural resources and cleaning and processing these fibers for years.
