A batch of fiber for yarn consists of:
15 – 450 pounds of sheep’s wool
10 – 450 pounds of Alpaca or mohair
10 - 450 pounds of exotic fiber. We have equipment that can process qiviut, bison, angora bunny, and other exotic fibers. Please contact us so we can do a small test batch to determine if we are capable of making the type of yarn you desire with your fiber before you send us your full order. We do not have a dehairer.
We can divide your batch by color or by fleece as long as the fleece or the color run weighs at least 7 lbs.
A batch of fiber for felt or felted items consists of: 1 – 450 pounds.
If we are felting alpaca we must do a 50% blend with wool.
Our minimum incoming weight is 15 pounds and our maximum incoming weight is 450 pounds per batch. If you have more than 450 pounds needing processing, we will have to schedule it as a separate batch. Once your first batch is paid for and collected, we will start
on your second batch. We can do as many batches as we need to to get through your wool.
We can blend fibers with your base fibers, You can use the fiber to be
blended as part of your minimum weight. No more than 50% blending
please.

or drop them off at the mill in person.
