Want to turn your fleeces into something special?
The Country Smallholder
|May 2025
If you are undecided what to do with your shorn fleece from this year's clip, The Natural Fibre Company offers a range of fibre processing services to transform it into premium quality yarns.
-
The woollen spinning mill based in Launceston, Cornwall adds value to raw fleece by transforming it into beautiful, high-quality yarn for weaving, crocheting, hand dyeing, machine knitting and hand knitting. They offer a wide range of specialist fibre processing services to the farming sector, as well as the fashion and textiles industry. They can guide you through your own Farm to Yarn or Farm to Garment journey, as well as advise you how to get the best end product from your fleece sample. Established in Cornwall in 2005, this small and unique British manufacturing business is led by CEO Colin Spencer Halsey, who has owned it since 2019. The business has undergone a complete transformation since its early days, with increased customer satisfaction and reduced processing times.
