Season 1.0 / Winter 2017-2018
2018 marks the ten year anniversary of Kelbourne Woolens and we are celebrating this milestone with a variety of exciting new products for you! We are delighted to introduce our first Kelbourne Woolens yarn, Andorra, to the market. Our years of crafting, working in yarn shops, speaking with our wholesale customers, and meeting thousands of knitters and crocheters at workshops, events, and book signings has inspired us to create a line of yarns with one idea in mind:
Kelbourne Woolens yarns are for those who love the craft as much as we do. Throughout the next year, expect to see Kelbourne Woolens present more yarns in classic colors made from natural fibers with affordability, longevity, and quality in mind. Thank you so much to all of our supporters over the last ten years. Here’s to many, many more!
