Fibre naturelle. Couleur authentique.

Toutes les laines AppleOak sont fabriquées à partir de fibres naturelles et colorées à l'aide de teintures naturelles traditionnelles, le cas échéant. Nous travaillons avec la laine, l'alpaga, le yak, la soie, le chèvre, le chanvre, la ramie et l'ortie — des fibres choisies pour leur intégrité, leur longévité et leur toucher naturel.

Toutes les laines colorées sont teintes en interne à l'aide de teintures naturelles. Nous n'utilisons pas de métaux lourds ni de produits chimiques synthétiques améliorant la couleur, et dans la mesure du possible, nos teintures sont cultivées et traitées biologiquement par nos soins dans notre atelier à Co. Clare.

€24,95 Épargnez €-24,95

ALPACA QUITO

100% Superfine Alpaca | Aran Weight | Natural Colours | NOTE: The black yarn is dyed, as natural black Alpacas are a rarity.

There is a particular comfort in softly spun alpaca. 

Grown in the high altitudes of the Peruvian Andes, superfine alpaca fibre offers exceptional warmth whilst remaining lightweight, breathable, and gentle against the skin. Naturally free of lanolin, it is especially well suited for those sensitive to sheep’s wool.

Alpaca Quito is a softly spun single-ply yarn made from 100% superfine alpaca fibre. Its airy structure allows the knitted fabric to form countless small air pockets, creating exceptional insulation whilst maintaining lightness and drape.

Smooth and silky on the needles, it moves effortlessly whilst knitting and settles into garments with a relaxed, natural flow. Its softness and buoyancy make it especially suited to warm sweaters, scarves, and garments designed for comfort and ease.

From alpaca farmer to spinning mill, the entire production takes place within Peru, supporting regional fibre traditions and local employment.

CORRIE 100% Laine | Teinture naturelle

€19,00 Épargnez €-19,00

CORRIE

100% Laine | Poids DK | Teintures Naturelles

Corrie est un fil de laine doux et velouté à un seul brin, filé au Pérou et teint naturellement chez AppleOak FibreWorks en utilisant des méthodes de teinture naturelle durables.

Sa structure lisse et délicatement filée permet aux mailles de s'ajuster uniformément tout en conservant douceur et souplesse. Il glisse facilement sur les aiguilles et se tricote en vêtements avec un drapé fluide et détendu.

Corrie a été développé comme notre premier fil teint naturellement de poids DK – plus léger que notre fil Stockholm plus épais, mais tout aussi agréable à travailler. Il convient particulièrement bien aux pulls, aux écharpes et aux vêtements portés près de la peau.

De la brebis au fil fini, la fibre et la filature sont entièrement réalisées au Pérou. La couleur naturelle finale est appliquée dans notre atelier de teinture en utilisant des méthodes de teinture durables et à faible impact, inspirées des pratiques traditionnelles de teinture naturelle.

Chaque écheveau offre profondeur, douceur et la variation discrète unique à la couleur tirée de la nature.

DONEGAL TWEED | 100% Wool | Spun in Donegal

€8,50 Épargnez €-8,50

DONEGAL TWEED YARN 

100% Irish Wool | Aran Weight | Spun in Donegal 🇮🇪

There is a particular honesty to Donegal tweed.

Born of landscape, weather, and generations of textile tradition, this yarn carries the quiet complexity of the Irish coast — soft greys, moss greens, ocean blues, and the subtle flecking that defines Donegal's characteristic landscape.

Spun and commercially dyed in Kilcar, Co. Donegal, this is an authentic Irish Aran-weight yarn made from 100% pure new wool. It is warm, durable, and deeply satisfying to knit with — the kind of yarn that settles into garments made to be worn for years.

Whether you are knitting a traditional Aran jumper or a contemporary everyday piece, Donegal tweed brings depth, texture, and heritage into every stitch.

In a nutshell

  • Fibre: 100% pure new wool
  • Weight: Aran / worsted weight
  • Length: 80 m per 50 g ball
  • Ball weight: 50 g
  • Recommended needle size: 4 mm (US 6 / UK 8)
  • Origin: Spun and dyed in Kilcar, Co. Donegal, Ireland 🇮🇪

What it is ideal for

• Traditional Aran jumpers
• Sweaters and cardigans
• Hats, scarves, and mittens
• Durable everyday knitwear

Character

Donegal tweed is known for its heathered base and distinctive flecks, created during blending, carding and spinning. These subtle variations give finished garments depth and life, and connect them to a long Irish textile tradition.

Care

Hand wash gently in cool water
Reshape whilst damp
Dry flat

Shade continuity

As with all traditionally spun yarns, subtle variation exists between dye lots.
If working on a larger project, we recommend ordering sufficient yarn to complete your garment.

Colourways

Available in a range of traditional Donegal tweed shades, each reflecting the colours of the Irish landscape.

NETTLE YARN Himalayan Nettle Fibre | Hand-Spun

€26,50 Épargnez €-26,50

HAND-SPUN NETTLE YARN

Himalayan Nettle Fibre | Naturally Undyed | Hand-Spun in Nepal

Our Himalayan nettle yarn is hand-harvested from wild nettle plants growing in Nepal and spun by hand using traditional methods. Untreated and naturally processed using only water and wood ash, it retains the integrity and character of the original fibre.

The yarn carries the quiet irregularity and variation inherent to hand-spun plant fibres. Its natural colours range from soft grey and beige to warm, earthy tones, reflecting the fibre’s origin.

Historically known as “poor man’s linen,” nettle fibre shares many of linen’s qualities — strength, breathability, and durability — whilst offering its own distinct texture and presence.

This yarn is entirely plant-based, biodegradable and produced through ethical small-scale production supporting rural families and traditional fibre knowledge.

In a nutshell

Fibre: 100% Himalayan nettle fibre
Weight options: Thin and medium weight
Length: approx. 265 m per 100 g
Form: skein or ball depending on weight

Processing: Hand-harvested and hand-spun
Treatment: Naturally processed using water and wood ash
Origin: Himalayan region, Nepal 🇳🇵

Colour: Naturally undyed (grey, beige, and earthy tones)

Weight options

Thin weight
• Smooth and relatively even
• Suitable for knitting, weaving, crochet
• Ideal for garments and other textile work

Medium weight
• More textured and uneven
• Suitable for weaving and structural textile work
• Less suited to fine knitting or garments

What it is ideal for

• Weaving
• Knitting (thin weight)
• Textile art
• Structural textiles
• Sustainable fibre projects
• Historical and heritage textile work

Character

Nettle fibre shares qualities with linen — strength, breathability, and longevity — whilst maintaining its own distinctive texture.

Each skein reflects the hand-spun process and the natural variation of wild plant fibre.

Care

Hand wash gently in cool water
Reshape whilst damp
Dry flat

With use and washing, the fibre softens naturally.

Ethical production

This yarn is produced through ethical, small-scale production in Nepal, supporting local women and families and preserving traditional fibre skills.

Wild harvesting ensures minimal environmental impact.
