Gwlad is a celebration of British wool, and the very first worsted spun yarn ever to be made in Wales, right in Garthenor's own mill in Cardigan on the West coast. Spun from three breeds: Lleyn, Romney and Hebridean, a trio of breeds with origins in Wales, England and Scotland respectively, and sourced from all around the UK.
Worsted spun into a 3-ply worsted weight, entirely undyed, totally organic and utterly fantastic.
Based in Wales, Garthenor Organic produces certified organic wool yarns that are traceable from flock to finished skein. Since 1999, their mission has been to create totally organic, stunningly sustainable yarn with no compromise—championing kindness to animals, people, and the planet. With a strong commitment to ethical production and a goal to spin every yarn in the UK wherever possible, Garthenor sets the standard for transparency and care in the industry.
They celebrate the immortality of wool—a renewable, recyclable, and reusable fiber—and work passionately to highlight its potential.
