Entirely Handmade

All our products are handmade and individually designed and finished.

We shear our sheep by hand (link to sheep blog) with tools that have been used since Medieval times.

The fleeces are washed in open sinks outside and put through a Victorian mangle before being dried naturally in the fresh air.

We cure our sheepskins on homemade frames and finish the rugs with hand tools and elbow grease.

Our yarn is dyed by hand; with every batch being different as different dyes are mixed to obtain unique results.

The felt is produced by manually rolling each sheet of felt 1600 times, and then individually cut to make our mats and cafetiere covers.

Our blankets are hand woven in Knockando Mill in Speyside;
