Vanishing Fleece by Clara Parkes - Signed Copy - Preorder
We are offering signed hardcover copies of this fascinating book to celebrate the October installment of the Heritage Wool Collective by Indie Untangled, which features special yarn developed by bestselling author Clara Parkes. Join us for a book club discussion in late November 2024.
This is a fast-paced account of the year Clara spent transforming a 676-pound bale of fleece into saleable yarn, and the people and vanishing industry she discovered along the way.
Join Clara on a cross-country adventure and meet a cast of characters that includes the shepherds, dyers, and countless workers without whom our knitting needles would be empty, our mills idle, and our feet woefully cold. Travel the country with her as she meets a flock of Saxon Merino sheep in upstate New York, tours a scouring plant in Texas, visits a steamy Maine dyehouse, helps sort freshly shorn wool on a working farm, and learns how wool fleece is measured, baled, shipped, and turned into skeins.
