For over 150 years, Briggs & Little has been spinning premium Canadian wool at their historic mill in York Mills, New Brunswick—the same place where it all began. Heritage is crafted from 100% domestic wool using time-honored, all-natural techniques that preserve the fiber's authentic character. You may notice bits of vegetal material woven through your skein—a gentle reminder of the yarn's journey from pasture to your hands.
