I love jacquard knits, they add cheer to any wardrobe, keep you warm in the winter and the merino yarn just keeps you all snuggled up. I always wear Merino jacquards during the cooler months and can only highly recommend them. This lovely knit reminds of autumn colours, a combination of red, turquoise, light green and orange on a beige background.
* PLEASE NOTE: The grey background shown in the picture is slightly different to the actual one used, which is a light beige in colour. Do order a sample first if not sure.
What is Jacquard?
Jacquard is a broad term, but it basically means that the pattern is a woven design rather than printed.
This lovely jacquard fabric is perfect for the cooler months of the year. Snug and warm, this fabric will need sewing unlike our other wool fabrics so far.
Warm, but breathable, this would make a lovely cardigan, waist coat, cape, jumper, skirt, coat, jacket, poncho, shawl, leg or hand warmers, children's clothing and even cushion covers or blankets. Also sleeping bags for babies or hot water bottle covers can be made from this fabric.

Our Linen Fabric 'Rombia' is suitable for:
Clothing:
Jumpers, Sweaters, Cardigans, scarves & shawls, Shirts
Homeware and Crafts:
Curtains
In a nutshell:
Material: 100% Linen
Width approx.: 162 cm
Colour: natural light beige
Weight: 110g/square meter
Not pre-washed
Expected Shrinkage: 10-15%
Wash: 40°C gentle cycle with organic detergent, turn inside out and spin a little, shape after washing and dry flat
Italian production
Environment:
Linen can be expensive, but it is also much better for the environment. Flax plants are very resilient, they can grow in poor soil, and require very little water. What’s more, every single part of the flax plant is then used in making all types of products, from linen clothing to varnishes.
Health:
Similar to silk, 100% linen is wonderful for people with sensitive skin and those prone to allergic reactions like "prickly heat" in hot weather. For women who suffer from "hot flushes", 100% linen is the most comfortable answer in warm environments.
Care:
Linen can't and shouldn't be ironed. The creasing is part of the natural allure. The creasing also molds the garment, and in practice the more creasing there is, the less evident it becomes as the whole garment softens.
Linen loves being washed and dries much quicker than Cotton. The more it is worn and washed the softer the fabric becomes. It also lasts much longer than cotton, as it is harder wearing and a much stronger material.
*orders of more than one piece will be cut in one continuous length unless instructed otherwise *
I would love to describe Linen as the European version of Silk. The best linen is produced in Ireland, Belgium and some other European countries.
A fine and softly woven linen fabric with a light sheen. Natural different coloured linen yarns have been woven together to create this lovely mottled look.

NETTLE Shawl ~ SEÁLTA GLAS
Our nettle shawl collection has been long in the making. The nettle fibre is collected, processed, spun and knitted by hand in Nepal, supporting a Fairtrade (currently processing application) organization that supports remote families and villages with a fair income. It is a long process, many hands and steps are involved. Once the shawls are done, we purchase the items directly from the organization and they send them to us in Ireland.
Once received, we scour and dye them using only natural ingredients. Our dye house is run on rainwater only. We use only cold mordanting methods which take a few days, but also save energy. We only work with two mordants, alum and iron acetate. No heavy metal or poisonous mordants/dyes are used in our system.
Once dyed, the used dye, rinse and wash water is added to settlement tanks, filtered in gravel and plant filters before drip fed into an evergreen woodland were it is used as organic fertilizer and turned back into oxygen by the trees.
Our left over dye matter is added to our wormery and turned into compost. After 6months it is used to feed our dye plants.
___________________________
Due to being handmade, each shawl is unique in length and width, as well as style. Nettle shawls, like linen, get softer with wear, though this one is already very soft.
SEÁLTA GLAS is shown here by Wiki. Wiki is about 160cm/5"2 tall.
100% Nettle fibre
Dye: Organic Indigo & pomegranate

EUROPEAN MERINO WOOL ~ Small farm production, Europe only productions, dyed to high oekotext standards in Switzerland.
There are 7 colours in this collection: saphire mix, sea mist, grey mix, mint, Wedgewood green, baby, Bordeaux
This European Merino Wool 27 micron wool roving is available in 60 trendy colours including 10 trendy mixed colours. This wool is dyed with synthetic dye from Switzerland according to the standards of Oeko-Tex 100 and EU Ecolabel for textile products.
This soft wool is produced in Europe, closer to home than your regular merino wool! The wool is produced on small farms in Europe and is mulesing free.
This European Merino Wool roving is a soft, voluminous and affordable all-round wool. It is great for wet felting as well as for needle felting, spinning and of course for XXL chunky knitting. All fibers align in the same direction and the roving has a regular thickness, making it an easy wool to knit with.
Wool is usually sold per weight. But sometimes you want to know how long the wool roving is. We have calculated the roving length of the different packages below:
Please note that this is an approximation. The length can vary per type of wool, per colour or per production. And the harder you pull, the longer the roving becomes.
Would you want to make sure you get the wool roving in one piece?
We try our best to deliver the roving in one piece. But please count in that even when we try our best we don’t always succeed. Sometimes we have no choice but to deliver the desired quantity in two or more pieces.
Be assured, we don't like cluttered inboxes either, so this is what you can expect from our newsletters:
Info on workshops and free dye recipes, Shop updates, Sales and Special offers and News from the Dye and Fibre world. All in all about 20 emails a year. And the best thing, you can unsubscribe any time you like by scrolling to the bottom of the email and clicking on unsubscribe.
