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.
