Parkland Blanket Wool – Gather Textiles

ABOUT

Parkland Blanket Wool

Working with local farmers and natural dye experts, we are proud to bring you a line of 100% traceable, sustainable weaving wool!

Join us in working towards sustainable weaving.

Gather has been working in collaboration with Traceable Textiles to bring you a line of blanket wool designed specifically for weavers. This is a project that has been over a year in the making.

The wool is locally grown, spun and dyed. The yarn has been extensively woven and sampled in our studio. When you weave with Parkland Blanket Wool, you are joining us in this sustainable project. With your support, we aim to offer you a new local weaving wool each year.
