Kelbourne Woolens – Germantown

Kelbourne Woolens – Germantown

We are so excited to welcome Kelbourne Woolens into the Fig Tree Family with Germantown – their worsted weight wool. We are currently the only stockists of  Kelbourne Woolens, outside of the USA and we are honoured to be their exclusive provider this side of the Atlantic.

An icon of American craft, Germantown was developed in Philadelphia in the early 1800s. The name is synonymous with a good quality worsted yarn. It is made in the US using 100% US grown wool, and a proud part of Germantown’s long history of American crafting.

If you’re a hat lover, make sure to check out the Year of Hats Collection, featuring 12 free hat patterns with corresponding 1-2 skein kits!

This yarn is a perfect colourwork pairing as a base for Spincyle Yarns Dream State for sweater and cosy shawl knits! This combination is featured in the Courage Shawl as well as our curated bundles for the Spice & Spark Cardigans.
