I am happy to say that I can now ship to the USA again! I will be shipping using the new Royal Mail Duties Paid service. This means that I will collect the 10% tarrif when you place an order. This will be paid to Royal Mail when I purchase your shipping label. Royal Mail will then pay the relevent duties to the required authorities. This means that you will not have to pay any further charges to receive your package in the USA.
If you have any questions, or would like a custom order, please contact me at

The Grey Wagtail is a charming bird, most often found by clear fast running streams in the hills. As all wagtails, they flit around, seemingly moving their tails up and down constantly. The Grey Wagtail is on the Red List for UK birds. This means that their numbers have decreased by at least 50% in the last 20 years. Happily, due to improving water quality, the range that these birds can survive in is increasing.
I first made this colourway in merino. As I have been asked to make up some of my colourways in fibres other than merino, this gradient has now been produced in Shetland fibre. The white and dark grey fibres are naturally coloured.
The Shetalnd batts are always lighter and more airy than the merino batts, which many people find easier to spin.
Shetland fibre will felt. If you do not wish it to, hand wash in cool water.
