Each year WYS process thousands of kilos of British wool; every spin leaves an excess amount of material that would usually wind up as ‘waste’.
WYS start by collecting all this valuable and perfectly good fibre which is gathered after each clean down of the spinning frames. Next, they send it to a local production partner to card, comb and convert back into tops before it arrives back at the mill for spinning. This spun yarn then heads out again to be dyed locally, and once dyed, it’s back to WYS for finishing, balling and packing. Sustainability is at the heart of everything Wys do, and all of this takes place within a 10-mile radius –
