Hello!

My name is Lindsey and I like wool.  Everything you see on this site has been designed and crafted by hand, using recycled woollen sweaters sourced from every thrift store across Southern Ontario.  I can't get enough!  After I find my treasures, they are washed and dried on hot, shrinking the wool fibres to create the thick, durable felt you see here.  Being a natural fibre, the wool is very warm, water repellent and perfect for a polar-vortex winter.  

Everything is made in a smoke-free home.

I'm always open to discussing custom requests - please message me on the Contact page.

Custom Mittens

My sweater stash changes all the time.

It takes a lot of thread...

...and buttons - two for each pair.

Inside the mitten is a liner made from fleece throws or Snuggies.

The sweaters, throws, buttons and a lot of the thread have come from thift stores or friends clearing out grandma's stuff.
