Cloverleaf Yarn
From Farm to Field
Why Cloverleaf Yarn
We're a small independent farm, we do the entire end to end process of raising the sheep from lamb, sheering, skirting, washing & drying, spinning and colouring.
Cloverleaf Yarn
Below is just a step by step of the process we take to get your garment to you.
Sheering
Professional shearer's take about 3 minutes to shear each sheep. Thank you Neil
Skirting
Skirting and sorting for quality takes about an hour per fleece
Washing And Drying
Washing and drying can only be completed on sunny days and can take 2-3 days
Spinning
It takes about a day to spin one bobbin, this is a single, when you have 3 bobbins they are "plyed" together to balance the yarn. The yarn is then washed and "thwacked" to set the spin.
Colouring
The yarn can now be dyed this will take up to 3 days
