The Natural Fibre Company

The company have been spinning wool in small quantities since 1991, but following a move from Lampeter in Wales to their new home in Cornwall in 2005, they have started a minor revolution in the industry by doing almost everything in small quantities. The company's reputation has been built by adding value to fleeces supplied by farmers and turning them into high-quality yarn. But they are now also buying wool from them which they are using in their own specially-developed, branded range of products. www.thenaturalfibre.co.uk
