Meet the Maker: Blacker Yarns

Launched in 2008 as part of The Natural Fibre Company, Blacker Yarns specialises in breed-specific British wool yarns, all spun under one roof in their mill in Launceston, Cornwall on the Devon border. They passionately track down individual British sheep breeds - from rare specialised varieties to more common fleeces - sourcing from UK farmers and producers in the Falkland Islands for their Blacker Swan range. Every yarn is made from 100% pure natural fibres including wool, alpaca, linen, and mohair, with the entire process from scouring to spinning to finishing completed in their mill. Their extensive range spans everyday classics to luxury rarities, available in Double Knitting, Aran, Chunky, Lace, 3-ply, and 4-ply weights in beautiful contemporary colour palettes. Blacker Yarns prioritises traceability and sustainability, working closely with farmers who take utmost care of their animals, using organic dyes, and supporting the circular economy. Their skilled team of textile-trained engineers and specialist mill operators create yarns that knit beautifully and last for generations, serving customers worldwide who appreciate authentic British breed wool.
