Wheely Wooly Farm

Welcome to Wheely Wooly Farm "where warmth comes naturally"! Our sustainably produced, award winning yarns come from our award winning sheep, starting with our now famous foundation ram, Wooly Bear, Grand Champion Midwest Region, 2009. From lambing to shearing to fiber preparation and the arts, our farm is vertically integrated so that we can produce high quality handspun yarns for your knitting pleasure. We hope you enjoy reading about life on this busy farm!

About Me

Amy: Northeast Wisconsin, United States; I began knitting, crocheting, and spinning a few years ago. Today I maintain a friendly flock of historic, purebred registered Shetland sheep. I strive to maintain diversity of fleece and color, as well as visibly correct conformation and bright expression as documented in the breed standard. The yarns I design are sold locally, and typically become treasured garments. Fiber quality is very important to us for Shetlands are a garment breed. We produce fiber that is easy to spin/knit and yarns that are soft, beautiful and durable, just as what was produced on the Shetland Isles in times past. I love attending classes on anything fiber or sheep related, and have shown our sheep in the past, winning the coveted Midwest Shetland Sheepbreeders Grand Champion Ram Award in 2009. Over the years, I've taught adults how to spin and knit, plus I am also a leader in our local 4-H club, teaching kids how to show poultry, dairy goats, fiber, and how to knit or spin. All of this experience helps me keep our Shetland sheep true to breed, hence bringing you fine quality animals, fiber, and those famous Shetland textiles!
