Happy #nationalpetday to you all. Here’s Luke, my very big fluffy pet. The herd are treated more like pets than livestock because I love to get to know each one and their individual personalities. I also believe treating them with love and care means they will grow stress free fibre that can be used to make all of our beautiful products. Happy animals means happy knitwear that you know comes from an ethically and sustainably produced source!
I see you Monday morning ✌

Here’s our Peace Jumpsuit (made from that wonder-ful Tencel) again but I think the Turmeric has sold out online since I did this part of the moodboard last week but it’s great in the Black and the white too (swipey swipe) 〰️〰️〰️

Meet Earl- one of our biggest alpacas, he gives the best cuddly hugs! Not as cuddly anymore after shearing but he still comes over first every day to see if I have something exciting to give him to eat. Earl was one of the first alpacas we got about 4 years ago and he has taught me a lot about owning these wonderful animals.
Thrilled to have been a finalist for the “Be The Change” awards run by @ethicalhour and @where_does_it_come on Friday night, the competition was tough and there were so many inspirational brands doing incredible sustainable and ethical practices.
I got the opportunity to represent alpaca fibre in a panel discussion on natural and sustainable fibres which was exciting, so happy to contribute to the talk and push alpaca for the incredible fibre that it is!
Thank you @scratch_posts for the photo and my fellow incredible change makers on the panel @where_does_it_come
