Mabou Ridge Centre for Holistic Living's Mill processes a wide range of natural fibres into batts, rovings, felt, and yarn from a pound to any required amount. As long-time fibre artisans and fibre producers ourselves, we know how important your fibre is to you. We work with you to get what you want and at exceptional quality.
If you don't see what you need in this section, feel free to contact us at 902.945.2171 or email us. We've been known to stand on our head (whilst doing a Highland Jig if necessary), just to get you what you need. Also, click here for a free, downloadable PDF of our booklet [360kb], This Little Fleece Went to Market: Shearing and Fibre Preparation, which is a guide to shearing and preparing your fleece for fibre processing.
To ensure the fastest turnaround time, it's best to call ahead or email us to schedule. We would also ask that you peruse the information we've provided on shearing, proper sorting and skirting, what to avoid in a fleece,and washing – all of which ensure better product quality. Please also note that fleeces full of excessive vegetable matter, tender or damaged fibres, and/or widely varying staple lengths will produce less-than-favourable results in yarn. Again, proper sorting and skirting will ensure the highest quality.
In the interest of watching our fibre producers grow and get the recognition they truly deserve for their dedicated and fine work, we also provide a package of valuable marketing information to take the guesswork out of the seemingly chaotic world of marketing.
As always, we look forward to working with you.
