This limited edition marled yarn is inspired by maple syrup
Our Roots yarn is made with a blend of soft wool (mostly Corriedale) from flocks in the American West or South America (more info). Scoured and combed at Chargeurs, it is dyed, pin-drafted, spun, and finished at our mill in Vermont. This non-superwashed, non-mulesed yarn pairs beautifully with our Making Tracks line of variegated yarn, which is made with the same base.
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.
Your project isn’t truly complete until it’s had its first wash! Here’s how to help our yarns reach their full potential:
For projects with contrasting colors, we recommend steam blocking to avoid any color transfer.
We believe in the authenticity of wool. Our yarns are crafted from 100% wool, with no superwash treatments, preserving the natural characteristics that make each skein unique. Enjoy the feel of real wool that’s soft, durable, and environmentally friendly.
At Junction Fiber Mill, every skein is a labor of love. Nestled in the heart of Vermont, our small mill produces high-quality, breed-specific yarns that celebrate the natural beauty of wool. Your purchase supports local craftsmanship and a passion for perfection.
Junction Fiber Mill was started in 2020 by two friends and sheep farmers, Amanda and Peggy. United by a shared passion for fiber, we created a mill that produces high-quality, breed-specific yarns with love and dedication.

I love this wool! The color combination is amazing, and it is so enjoyable to knit with. The milling process is spot on as every skein was consistent. I’m not a big fan of colors, so I took a chance on this combination and didn’t regret it. It is subtle enough, but it also has that pop of maple goodness shining through.
Sugar on snow knits up beautifully! I need to order more!
This colorway is beyond spectacular in person! Currently working on a sweater (Flax DK by TinCan Knits) and it just glides off the needle! I would love to see this make a comeback next sugar season.
Had to buy this again. Loved this color the first time making a couple of hats. A couple of gifts for later this year will be on the needles as my travel projects.
I saw Amanda in a clip of what looked like the Oslo hat from Petite knit and knew I had to try it. As usual I can’t stick to the pattern and will have to stitch brim of hat. Let me know if it is another hat design and I will start frogging. Martha
I can’t wait to knit up something beautiful with this yarn! You can tell the level of care and craftsmanship that goes into each skein from Junction.
with the two skeins, I've made two roll-brim beanies using Tunisian rib stitch- very warm and soft. The yarn was seriously well-behaved. Thanks
Store owner replied: So glad! Hat looks great
Beautiful yarn and shipped was very quick. Can’t wait to start my project.
Yarn arrived in good order and was the requisite soft and squishy! Color was spot on as per description/image on website. Would love to order again!
Love the color - probably won’t get to knit with this until fall but the “sugar” will be a perfect match to my daughters winter coat.
I saw the sugar on snow yarn highlighted on the Junction Fiber Mill podcast. Beautiful color! The millcast is a great way to learn about sheep farming, processing of yarns, JFM’s product lines and to get inspiration for new projects. Thanks for producing a great podcast.
This yarn is so beautiful and arrived quickly and packed well!
Just love your yarn❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The Sugar on Snow Yarn is so beautiful - very excited to make an Oslo Hat with it! Will share afterwards!
This yarn is absolutely delicious! 🥰
Love the colors and what they mean! I had sugar on snow at my cousins farm in VT when I was young. Never forgot it!
I have family friends back in Massachusetts that I knit scarves for their annual Thanksgiving present, one in each of my two scarf designs. Each scarf needs about 400 yards. As I've said (repeatedly), I prefer working with size 2 needles and sock yarn weight, but LOVE working with your yarn, usually on size 6 needles. Last Open House, I bought the last two Cider Doughnuts skeins, and started knitting a scarf for myself immediately, despite having several projects on needles. Finished in a week, which led me to order the Sugar on Snow for my friends, since this year's present has a definite Vermont theme. THANKS!
Just love the color!!
This yarn is spectacular! The colors and softness are perfect.
LOVE LOVE LOVE everything you make!
