HOME STORY YARN

A yarn that comes from this land and sings of the soil, the animals, the plants and the makers’ hands, in every step of its journey to you.

Home Story ‘slow’ yarn is a labour of love. From the farmer who nurtures the alpacas, to the hands that carefully spin their fleece into yarn, to the plants that were cultivated and gently brewed to naturally dye each skein.

This is a limited edition artisan yarn of distinction, quality and beauty that hopes to offer you a deeper connection to our natural world and to the joy of handcrafting. Your work begins now where ours leaves off. I hope that you are as delighted with this luxurious and environmentally responsible yarn as we are and enjoy making something truly special.

This Victorian grown, milled and dyed yarn is chemical free.

Care Instructions:

Handwash only with a gentle wool wash such as Earth Choice

Dry flat in the shade

Some bleeding may occur with initial washes

Variations in colours are a normal attribute of botanically dyed yarns. If you wish to knit a garment, alternate skeins to avoid patching or striping.

Purchase enough skeins for your project from the same batch number. Variations in colour will occur between different batches.

Your Valleymaker knitted garment will last for years if cared for properly.
