Cornish Organic Wool Launches Certified Colour Range
last updated: December 11th, 2007




Having worked with the Soil Association on this for the last two years, we have at last been certified and are ready to introduce our first certified range of colours.

Initially we have introduced the colour range in standard DK weight as this is the most popular yarn. We are currently hand dyeing wool from Bosigran Farm in Zennor. All this process takes place in Cornwall so we continue to keep our eco foot print down to a minimum.

Our range of colours will be officially launched into the retail sector at the Craft Hobby and Stitch International Show at the NEC in Birmingham in February 2008.

Orders are now being taken for January 2008 delivery.
