The Merino is sourced from a mob of 125 sheep kept exclusively for us by the Lyons Family at Mt Bodangora, NSW. The family have owned the property for 5 generations. The merino are SRS(soft rolled skin) and are not mulesed.
The yarn is processed and spun in Victoria and hand dyed.

The merino range is named after Elizabeth Macarthur, an early pioneer of the merino wool industry in Australia.
The semi solid colours are named after Australian female painters and the variegated colours are inspired by colour themes in their paintings.
