Here in the rolling hills of upstate New York, we produce a variety of very special
yarns. Our fibers are "home grown", produced right here on the farm. We are home to a flock of fiber
animals, including a variety of sheep, Angora Goats (who produce mohair), and an angora bunny. We keep our flock small
and make it a priority to treat them humanely. We do not slaughter for meat, ever. Our animals are considered
to be "pets", rather than livestock. In return, we are rewarded with gorgeous wool and mohair.
Some of our yarns are hand spun. Others are sent to a mill to be processed
and returned to us ready to dye and sell.
If you are a knitter who
really wants a unique product that is not "run of the mill", we think our yarns will help create a very special
knitting experience.
Again, welcome to our farm, via our web site. Feel
free to take a look around.
Sincerely,
Sheila and Nancy
Whether you are a knitter, weaver, rug hooker,
felter, hand spinner, or fiber enthusiast, we feel confident that Simple Pleasures Yarns and Fibers can satisfy your desires.
We have
yarns both Mill Spun and Hand Spun. We dye in small batches so that they are unique, and truly "one of a kind".
Hand painted or hand dyed roving and mohair are also available.
We welcome visitors..... we try to keep consistent hours, however
some times farm life takes precedence. We are always open on Saturdays from 10-5. If you would like to
visit at another time, feel free to call. We are happy to accomodate appointments...and group outings.
