We can't stop talking about this, here in Oregon. Out east of Sisters/Bend is a great 43,000 acre ranch called Imperial Stock Ranch in Shaniko, Oregon.
We recently started offering 3 different yarn bases from Imperial Stock Ranch (since it's local...and we love supporting local!)
Columbia: 2-Ply Mulespun (aran weight) yarn
(Essential Sweater pattern featured)
Erin: 3-Ply 100% wool (worsted weight) yarn
(Andora Cape pattern featured)
Tracie Too: 2-Ply Sport weight
Sunburst Shirtdress pattern featured
Well... it just so happens that someone at Ralph Lauren heard about this wonderful ranch and coordinated the purchase of 6250 lbs of wool for this year's Winter Olympics! All the opening ceremony uniforms are sourced, designed and created in the USA!
See this amazing story at Ralph Lauren
Hope we'll see them at Quilt!Knit!Stitch! August 2014
