Knockando Woolmill - North Country Cheviot Wool Yarn
We are proud to introduce our upcoming range of North Country Cheviot Wool Yarn. The wool for this range was sourced from Dalrachie Farm, located just 12 miles from the Woolmill. Sourcing the wool directly from the farm means we can follow the journey from lamb to skein, and helps us ensure we are producing a sustainable product of the highest quality possible. Processing wool from local North Country Cheviot sheep carries on a 230 year tradition that has been at the heart of our district mill for generations. All our knitting yarn is processed on Grade A listed machinery dating from 1870 - 1910, and is hand washed to ensure the best finish possible. We are launching this range of yarn at the Edinburgh Yarn Festival (15th - 17th March). This will be our third time attending the event and we can't wait to show everyone what we have been busy working on! The North Country Cheviot yarn will also be available to purchase online after the festival - so keep a look out! https://www.kwc.co.uk
