Due to the upcoming changes to import taxes and tariffs being levied on packages to the USA, I have had to stop accepting orders from my friends in America.
I am presently investigating methods of shipping where taxes are paid when placing an order (so there are no horrible surprises!). As soon as I can organise this I will be accepting orders from the USA.again. Thank you for your patience!
If you have any questions, or would like a custom order, please contact me at

This colourway was designed for the third instalment of the Silk Roads rolag club. The Taklamakan Desert bisects the two main routes of the Silk Road, with traders having to follow the northern or southern route. At the edge of the desert were oasis trading towns, and still, to this day, the edge of the desert you will find an amazing forest of ancient poplars. These ancient and rare trees are now designated a World Heritage Site.
These rolags are based on the amazing colours that the leaves of the poplar trees turn during autumn. The colours range from vivid golden, to bright orange to stunning bronze. I was stunned at how beautifully lush these trees can look in such an extremely barren habitat.
The rolags are made from a blend of beautifully soft fawn Jamieson and Smith Shetland fibre blended with 1/3 shimmering tussah silk.
