Garthenor’s mission is to promote and provide a variety of sustainable, organic & British wool products in an ecologically responsible way.  Our aim is to help secure the future of British organic agriculture and the British textile industry.

Their organic yarns are produced from wool sourced directly from the finest certified organic flocks in the UK, and are carefully blended to produce deep, heathery undyed shades and masterfully skein dyed colours.

We are stocking Pentland and Preseli.

Pentland : this woollen spun, 2-fold 4ply is a dream for colourwork. The textured plies give excellent definition throughout – a real all round workhorse yarn.  Pair with Number 2 for gentle neutrals. See shades here

Preseli : to create the subtle, complex pair of bases that make up Preseli, they’re mill-blended as tops before spinning. By blending this way, they’re able to get a smooth, even top that keeps the deep grey blend, perfect for heathery tones once dyed. A blend of Polwarth, Romney and Hebridean, Preseli is their softest yarn ever. See shades here
