Naturally dyed wool from the Kamouraska region
La Bergerie des étoiles is a little farm located in Saint-Alexandre-de-Kamouraska, Quebec. Since September 2020, I have been raising Finnish and Wensleydale sheep with the intention of producing wool that is local and dyed with natural materials grown or wild harvested on my property. The wool from my flock will be available in very limited quantities as I only have 39 sheep (up from 6 in 2020!) and work alone. Some 2024 skeins are still available, with more to come in 2025 from the end of winter on! Meanwhile, I have textured batts, both in natural colours and dyed, and locks and curls for spinners and other bases, just to make myself happy!
I'm working on new projects, in particular felting, to make the most of the parts of the fleeces that are too short for spinning, to be continued!
