Why coloured Sheep?
Coloured sheep look fantastic in the paddock.
Coloured sheep look fantastic in a paddock at anytime of the year.
Coloured sheep are already that... naturally coloured!
We wanted not only organic wool but completely chemical free. Wool that is artificially coloured requires a lot of nastie chemicals in the dying and softening process. Commercial wool goes through very harsh processes. The natural fibre look is lost. Chemicals are used as colour dyes as well.
The colours in our natural coloured fleeces can not be reproduced... they are unique. The same coloured sheep every year will produce a different coloured fleece. No fleece colour is ever the same. Basic stitches, basic patterns look wonderful when natural coloured wool is used.
I wanted natural colour wool! I wanted my clothing to be chemical free and look natural!
Coloured sheep produce coloured wool with natural colour character!

Multi-coloured fleeces require no blending. Harrie produces a very interesting jumper!
