Neighbouring our factory in Cardigan is a mill that Jonny King and his mother, Sally, have built over the last twenty-five years.
Garthenor Organic uses restored machinery from the 1950s, sourced from mills across Europe and kept running largely by Jonny himself. It's the UK's only organic-first woollen mill, producing yarns that are spun from single British flocks and traceable from fleece to finished skein.
In this Workshop Wisdom, Jonny talks about what it's like working in the mill, his favourite machine, and the desire to make.
