Our mission is to create the cleanest, greenest and most responsible processing practices, yarn, fabric, clothing and products and to build community around the reclamation of a local natural textile industry.

Using traditional methods on vintage equipment, we are processing natural wool fibre from small Canadian farms. We produce a line of artisanal garments in the same way that it has been done for thousands of years; chemical free, non-toxic, long-lasting clothing that eventually returns to the soil.  We work exclusively with Canadian grown fibre; Wool, Alpaca, Mohair and small amounts of Angora and Llama.  SXWe process raw fleece for small to mid- sized Canadian farms. 

For our own brand of clothing and household products, we purchase raw wool from Ontario fibre farms, checking that their practices are both chemically and cruelty free.   We are home to the “15 Mile Jacket”, the “25 Mile Sock” and the “40 Mile Sweater”. No chemicals, beyond soap and a pH balancer in the wash water, are used in processing and as a result, our yarn and fabric will provide you with some of the most comfortable, responsible and chemical free products that are being produced in the world today. Our yarn and fabric have not been denatured or poisoned and are a testament to the possibilities that exist for locally and ethically produced textileS.
