About who makes it:
Spun in Maine by Jagger, a family-run fiber mill with a nearly 140-year spinning tradition, this yarn is created with wool from the UK that is brought to Jagger, where it is spun into high-quality yarn that supports New England's fiber-making history.
Maine has a long and proud tradition of woolen mills, but very few exist in operation today. We're so happy to partner with Jagger and bring this beautiful yarn - a piece of our home state, and the heritage of its fiber shed - to our shop for you to enjoy.
