Shepherd's Lamb: plant-Dyed Rambouillet Yarn
Our natural, plant-based dyed Rambouillet yarns are as unique as the flora and fauna that they come from. Each dye bath produces a variation in color that is nearly impossible to reproduce on a large scale. Below is a sampling of some of the different types of colors that can be produced using plants such as madder root, osage, juniper, black walnut, indigo, and cochineal. Limited selections of natural-dyed yarns are available for purchase from the Tierra Wools Online Store. To view the full selection of constantly emerging hues and check out the dyers in action, visit Tierra Wools at 2540 Highway 64/84 in Chama, New Mexico.
