Testimonies from some of our dyers

"Jarrad and Aleashia deserve high praise for their confident and exciting contribution to the Aussie yarn trade. Always delightful to deal with, their yarns are beautiful and I’m sure will become a mainstay for hand dyers looking for high quality and consistent supply"

Hannah - Circus Tonic

 

"As an indie dyer of over 15 years and a passionate supporter of Australian made, I was so excited to find Kirchelly Textiles.

When Jarrad told me about the farming, processing and handling of their SRS Merino and how it behaved similar to a superwash yarn I was a little sceptical that it could be any better than any other non superwash yarn.  After I received my sample, doing my own tests with dyeing, knitting and then washing the finished item, I can say I am blown away by this fabulous yarn.

So traceable and natural, without the use of chemicals, non mulesd and a small global footprint, it is truly a terrific Australian product that they can be proud of and that I am excited to carry in my online shop. I am more than happy to recommend this product and the team at Kirchelly Textiles to fibre lovers everywhere."

Cheryl - Natural Fibre Arts

 

“One of our goals at Three Trees Fibre Crafts is to support our local Australian wool industry as much as possible. So it was with delight we learned Jarrad & Aleashia were making their stunning Australian single source yarns available to fellow indie dyers of Australia through Kirchelly Textiles.

We have enjoyed a wonderful working relationship with this power-house couple who are extremely professional, and meticulous in everything they do. They have a passion for natural Australian fibres being made available to any dyer, no matter how large or small. They bring that passion, quality and care to all aspects of their business.

I have had the pleasure of dyeing the 4ply Merino specifically for Three Trees Fibre Crafts Clubs and custom orders and it’s quality is unsurpassed. We hope to expand our use of Kirchelly yarns considerably in the future.”

Rhonda & Barry - Three Trees Fibre Crafts

 

"Jarrad and Aleashia have been fantastic at coordinating with me. Their cheerful, upfront nature makes ordering with them really easy.

The Kirchelly Textiles SRS Merino is incredible - soft, supple, dyes beautifully and still smells of the lanolin when you receive it.

I'm proud to be able to dye with their yarn, and it is wonderful to have an Australian merino that is non-mulesed as an option for ethically minded crafters. "

Tess - Fluff & Nonsense

 

"I was so pleased to hear that Great Southern Yarn and Kirchelly Textiles would be available for wholesale to yarn dyers like myself as they've always been a favourite yarn of mine to work with. 

When I received the cones, I was very happy with the quality - and after dyeing and knitting some of the yarn I'm delighted with the results.  I'm looking forward to providing these yarns in my shop as I know there's demand for a local non superwash Australian wool."
