By carefully selecting fibre from sheep, alpaca, angora goats & other luxury materials or using vintage fibre sourced from our ever growing stash, we hand process, spin, weave & occasionally use earth friendly dyes to create a fabric which is then expertly sewn into a garment (usually by JoâŠ. the professional who loves a straight line). We have a few styles for you to peruse & happy to discuss a colour or style to fit your wardrobe. Better still⊠come and do a poncho workshop where youâll weave your own.
