KnoxFarmFiber

knoxfarmfiber's Shop Announcement

Hand-spun / Hand-dyed yarn and supplies from the fiber animals at Knox Farm State Park in East Aurora, New York.

Wool- the ultimate in renewing, recycling and re-using.



What is organic yarn anyway? If it means the sheep are well-fed, well-cared-for, have lots of pesticide-free pasture, are protected against predators, in good health with lots of friends----and then their wool is cleaned with eco-detergent, dried in the fresh air, carded the old fashioned way and dyed by hand with low-impact environmentally friendly dyes, spun by hand, and labeled with a photo of the sheep who donated it.....if that's organic yarn, then this is the place to buy some.


I am a proud member of the Etsyknitters Street Team and the EtsyFAST team. And now part of Eco-Etsy !


Note: I am now using "Greener Shades" in my yarns and rovings hoping to lessen any negative environmental impact from other dyes. Check them out at greenershades.stillrivermill.com.

THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR ONE GREAT YEAR ON ETSY !!
