2026 release is now sold out. Next batch currently growing, and due in the Fall of 2027.
This stunning marled yarn is made from the fleece of heritage breed Jacob sheep, sourced from a small farm in Norwich, Vermont. Jacob sheep are known for their distinctive spots, and we’ve separated the fiber into three natural, undyed shades: light, medium grey, and dark brown/grey. Each ply is processed separately, and then carefully plied together to create this one-of-a-kind marled yarn.
The result is a rich blend of natural colors in every skein, reflecting the beauty of Vermont’s heritage wool. Perfect for creating projects with depth and texture, this yarn highlights the unique character of the Jacob breed in every stitch.
We're small batch
Make sure to purchase enough yarn to complete your project. We can't guarantee we'll still have the same batch in stock in the future.
Made in small batches at Junction Fiber Mill in White River Junction, Vermont
Care
Wet-Blocking Care Instructions
Your project isn’t truly complete until it’s had its first wash! Here’s how to help our yarns reach their full potential:
Fill a sink or basin with cold water.
Add a small amount of no-rinse wool wash.
Submerge your knitted item, gently squeezing out any air bubbles to ensure it stays fully underwater.
Soak for up to 10 minutes. While our dyes are tested for colorfastness, some dyes are notoriously difficult to set and may release a small amount of excess color.Using cold water, gentle wool wash, and a short soak will help prevent color redeposit on light-colored fibers.
Drain the water.
Gently lift your knitted item from the water and remove excess moisture by rolling it between clean, dry towels with light pressure.
Lay flat and shape to air dry.
For projects with contrasting colors, we recommend steam blocking to avoid any color transfer.

My photo doesn't do it any justice! Beautiful color, perfectly plyed, consistent thickness, no breaks or knots!
A bit of dried grass here and there, but that's how you know it's real!
