Black Isle Yarns

Julie Rutter has built Black Isle Yarns on a passion for truly local wool. Working with trusted farmers, Julie chooses each fleece personally, has it spun at a British mill and then dyes each skein using foraged and other plant material. The result is lively, woolly yarns that glow with the natural beauty of the Scottish Highlands.
