Rather than beginning with a fixed\ndesign and importing materials to suit, the process here begins with the land\nand the wool it offers. Each fleece is assessed by hand, then prepared and spun\nat one of the last woolen-spun mills in Canada. Colour is introduced through\nblending natural sheep colours or by using plant-based dyes.
