2023 brought more new visitors to the Mill than ever before. We’ve shared with them the history of our co-op from its founding in 1981 to our newest yarns that are still on the bobbins.
Their enthusiasm for our process and our products reminds us afresh everyday that making beautiful yarn is important work. In your hands, the gorgeous skeins of yarn that we spin from natural fibers become cherished keepsakes. They warm and comfort your family, friends and members of your community.
We want to offer a hearty thank you to all of the folks who visited the Mill over the past couple of weeks for the I-91 Shop Hop. We really enjoyed meeting new friends, offering them tours of the Production Floor and sharing this new pattern. We’d like to introduce you to our latest FREE pattern: the Stash Buster Crochet Hat designed by Maureen.
Green Mountain Spinnery will be attending three big fiber festivals this fall, including the Sheep & Wool festivals in the Wisconsin, New York, and Vermont. If you happen to be in the neighborhood, we hope you’ll drop by and see is and our latest yarn offerings. We’d love to meet you!
There was a distinct bite to the air this morning as we arrived at the Mill and that tells us that Fall is coming and our festival season is near!

We are hard at work spinning up a storm of fresh skeins so that we and some of your favorite fiber producers and indie dyers will have fresh inventory to share with you in the coming months.
