    • Woolstok Tweed, a unique addition to the beloved Woolstok family is a soft, lofty and characterful yarn with rustic charm (but no itch).

      This plied Aran weight yarn is features a 14 colour earthy palette that is pulled from the original Woolstok palette and inspired by the natural landscape. The range offers endless colour combinations to suit every taste.


      Spun from a blend of 85% Fine Highland Wool and 15% Donegal, Woolstok Tweed has an overall muted tone with accents of speckled texture due to the delicate Donegal neps.

      This versatile yarn is excellent for larger needle projects, garments, accessories and home décor.


      As with original Woolstok only the finest of this clip from select Peruvian Highland sheep is used for Woolstok Tweed.

      OUR STORY by Blue Sky Fibers

      Creating consciously crafted fibers and patterns is more than just our focus, it’s our passion. Ever since we started with a small herd of alpacas in our backyard, we’ve been committed to making yarn in the best way possible to show off its natural beauty.

      And while our exclusive offerings have grown beyond alpaca to include wool, organic cotton and silk, our desire for getting makers of all stripes excited about natural fibers and knitting hasn’t changed one bit. It all winds back to the yarn, ensuring that every precious, handmade hank is lovingly filled with endless inspiration.

      Blue Sky Fibers started as a pet project, of sorts. Shortly after graduating college, owner/founder Linda Niemeyer's curious preoccupation with Alpacas led to her buying one. Soon Linda found herself with a lot of yarn on hand. She took it to a nearby yarn store, which was willing to buy and sell it. And the rest, as they say, is history.

      Today Blue Sky Fibers is known worldwide for its consciously crafted collection of high-quality natural fibers and patterns. One can only imagine how things might have turned out differently had Linda been obsessed with giraffes instead.
