Kate has been spinning, weaving and teaching textiles most of her life, so sheep have always been around, particularly coloured ones.
Wool prices have reached rock bottom, triggered by low world demand and currency exchanges but wool is one of the most environmentally friendly fibres ever. As a result of receiving such a low price in 2001 for he wool (£2.22) we now process all the wool from 50 sheep into lovely, organic, undyed blankets and throws. Local knitters doing all the hand knitting. Wool is spun in Cornwall and woven in Wales.
Textiles are sold at craft fairs but are always available direct from the farm and individual items can be knitted to order.
