From this to this.

Who loves a black sheep? We do and we love the socks that their wool creates! Our black sheep don’t have true black wool, so we call it dark gray. You’ll see it’s more of a dark chocolate or black coffee color and we think you’ll love it!

Even in summer, wool is our best seller! Don’t be surprised, wool is an equal seasonal opportunity fiber. Maybe your feed isn’t flooded with facts about wool, like ours is… but the more you learn, the more you want to make wool a year round staple for your body, home, and lifestyle!

We can make that happen!

We are still looking to close mid-September but will be selling our products at the store even after closing, however, as the building will no longer belong to us, we need to downsize! Come out and find antique textile equipment and tools or filing cabinets and tables. Of course we also are stocked with yarn, lanolin, socks and all the other wool products you’ve come to love!

Now that the contract is signed, we await the closing date for the sale of our log cabin store. We think this will be mid- or late-September.

We will be leasing a portion of the store to enable us to continue to serve our patron customers and to allow us time to focus on where we will determine to have our ranch operation. We do have some interesting and wonderful options. Time will tell and with God’s direction we will proceed.

Please keep us in your prayers as we proceed forward.

And pleae come and send your friends to buy up our large spinning wheels, looms, and antique textile museum pieces!

Most people know us for our yarn (if not our socks, lanolin, sheepskins, and blankets!).

Did you know our yarn is the lowest price for high quality yarn? We never use synthetic fibers. Our wool is American raised if not Virginia raised! Our cotton is locally grown. Many of our colorways are hand kettle-dyed with eco-friendly dyes!
