Scarves & Shawls
Our scarves can be ordered in vanilla white, light or dark brown (some variegated yarns), true black or bay black (with a lovely chestnut hue), and light, medium or dark grey. They can be custom designed a solid color with varying weaves or in a broad, stripped pattern. Colors may be custom selected as are weaves. Several of our weaves create a more ‘open’ scarf and several create a more ‘closed’ pattern with a slightly heavier look and feel.
Scarves come in varying widths from 6-8 to 12 inches wide and many are 50-60 inches long with fringe at each end. The larger size of our scarves provides the ability to wrap one’s neck fully several times for the full benefit of the scarf’s warmth. Some scarves created by our fiber artists are stripped with lovely patterns of natural color. Others are solid with varied knitted patterns, some shorter in length with no fringe. Each is unique.
Remember – alpaca is a hollow fiber which means these soft scarves and shawls are lighter weight and very warm. Men’s scarves are somewhat wider with no fringe and are a heavier weight. Smaller scarves for children also available.
Scarves 6-8 inches with fringe starting at $115.00 Scarves 10-12 inches with fringe $125.00/heavier weight $145.00 Men’s wide scarf no fringe starting at $125.00
Our shawls often measure 24 inches by 60 inches and can be made to order in any size. (Meditation shawls are also available in wider widths). Scarves come in similar colors as our scarves described above. Both lighter and heavier weight shawls can be custom designed in varying weaves. All have fringe at each end. Many people love the more ‘open’ look of our ‘heart’ patterned shawl, while others prefer the more ‘closed’ look and the slightly heavier feel of our ‘straight line’ weave or our ‘double tuck’ woven shawls. Many wear our shawls as very large scarves or as a ‘dressy’ outer layer for extra warmth on a spring, autumn day or summer evening. Closer woven shawls give a less ‘dressy’ look.
Lighter weight standard sized shawl $145.00 Heavier weight standard sized shawl $165 Most heavy weight standard sized shawl $185.00 and up

During summers or early autumns past we have been excited to invite old friends and new fiber enthusiasts to our family farm for a buffet luncheon and farm tour including edible gardens and hilltop views of the Catskills. This past summer in lieu of our gathering, we assisted at the Dutchess County Fair, Wool Room with the local fiber guild Elmendorf Handspinners Guild. See them at elmendorphhandspinners.org.
During this year’s growing season, we grew a selection of dyeing plants – including wonderful tall-red and stocky Amaranth — to dye our farm-raised Cormo sheep skeins to create lovely, hand-dyed, sport-weight yarns. Although these are not for sale, we’ll have a nice selection of hand-dyed yarns at our markets this fall created from more standard, and commercially available vegetable dyes. Our selection over the past years has been very appreciated by fiber enthusiasts for their own creations. See our Farm Events page for more info.
