Pine is dyed with Indigo over marigold from our garden to achieve the deep blue over the base of charcoal grey. All the Single Ladies is Wing & A Prayer Farm's Shetland yarn, a worsted 3-ply single-strand, is 238 yards, and 100g.

The Sweater sample is ‘The Lovable Sweater’ designed by Sylvia McFadden, as knit up by Kate Salomon of Green Mountain Spinnery. Green Mountain Spinnery is the local cooperatively run woolen spinning mill that mills our Shetland wool into this beautiful yarn.

Our farm is a member of the Livestock Conservancy for our Shetland, Cotswold & Teeswater rare breed sheep. We make single breed processed wool products and also blend breed-specific fiber for the best of the best! All The Single Ladies is a silky Shetland & Mohair Single-ply 3-strand Worsted Weight Yarn - a favorite spin for us, likened to Green Mountain Spinnery's "Mountain Mohair." It is light and lofty with a lovely halo. Each skein is 100 grams and 238 yards, and dyed with natural dyes.

You might notice a softer overall feel with less distinct stitch definition yet it is still very warm. This is because of the open nature of the yarn. Without multiple strands being twisted around each other, there is less compression.

The look and feel of a single-ply yarn is smooth and when worked up tends to produce a fabric that is plush and blooms into a soft, relaxed fabric.
