Windham

By Jill Draper Makes Stuff

Jill Draper’s worsted-weight merino has a light hand and color that shifts in that lovely way that hand-dyed yarns do. The 4-ply construction adds strength and durability to the fine merino fibers, and it’s soft enough for any picky wool wearers. Scroll down to learn more!

We adore Jill Draper’s custom-made, American-grown yarns that she dyes by hand in her Hudson Valley studio. We’ve carried Jill’s yarns in the Shop from early days, and have been knitting with them for even longer. It’s hard to think of a worsted-weight project that Windham would not be good for!
