A Staff Reflection on JoAnn Store Closures: What’s Next for Crafters
One of our staff reflects on what JoAnn stores closures mean to many crafters, fiber arts included.
Brown Sheep Company is best known for Lamb's Pride; a unique blend of 85% wool and 15% mohair in a color palette comprised of 98 solid, heathered, and monochromatic colors. Each ready-to-go 4 oz pull skein of Lamb's Pride Bulky has 125 yards of Single-Ply yarn that is extremely versatile; lending itself very well to both knit and crochet garments, wet or needle felting, home accents such as rugs, pillows, and many more projects.
The classic touch of mohair along with about 25-micron wool has made this line a staple in every fiber lover's stash and the center anchor for the company for the past 30 years.

Brown Sheep Yarns are permanently moth proofed using a non-insecticide; from their FAQ:
We use a non-insecticide chemical called Ecolan CEA to moth-proof our wool. It is added to the dye bath at the same time as the dyes and is “permanent” in the sense that it will not wash, rub, or dry clean off the wool. The treatment works as an insect resist agent by making the wool protein unpalatable to the wool moth larvae.
Large and/or out-of-stock orders will be either ordered into our warehouse and then shipped to you or drop-shipped from Brown Sheep’s mill in Nebraska, USA.
