Undyed Knitwear · Season of Soil
Wool the colour it grew.
We knit in small batches from fibre we can trace to the flock, in the colours the animals already wore. Nothing is dyed, nothing is treated, and everything can be sent back to be mended for life.

In their words
“Three winters in and it looks better than the day it arrived. They mended the elbow for free and sent it back with a note.”
“You can smell the lanolin in it. It feels like a jumper someone actually made, because someone actually did.”
“We have shorn these flocks for six generations. Terra is the first buyer who wanted the wool the colour it grew.”
