Mill Blend
We’re going green this week with Mill Blend: Blues Mix
This beautiful steely-grey blend is made entirely from remnants of yarns we spun throughout 2025. We love to use every last bit of our gorgeous wool, it’s thoughtful, resourceful, and full of character, just like our team here at the Mill!
And stick around… you’ll also catch a sneak peek of our upcoming fiery Roots colorway.
