This small batch of yarn is made from the 2024 fleeces of Marilyn, Victoria, Hazel, and Maple: Kelly's four Romeldale sheep. Marilyn, Victoria, Hazel are white, and Maple is dark brown, resulting in a beautiful soft grey colour after mixing their fleeces together. Listing price is per skein.

PROCESS
Kelly's sheep spend the spring, summer and fall happily grazing the fields of Kelly and Scott's property, and are fed hay and corn during the winter. They're sheared in the spring, and the fleeces go to Taproot Fibre Mill in the Annapolis Valley to be processed into beautiful yarn.
CARE
All items made with untreated (non-superwash) wool should be hand washed in cold water, and laid flat to dry. Spot cleaning will help prolong the life of your knitwear!
