Hello designers! I am the owner and creator of Ranching Tradition Fiber. I am a fifth generation Montana Rancher who raises sheep, Spins, processes, dyes, crochets and knits. I have my own yarn line called “Tobacco Root Valley” which is named after the mountain range that over looks the valley where we live. We will have 12 colorways. Sumac, Larkspur, Madison, Slate, Rye, Fir, Cone, Chokecherry, Fall Ash, Natural White, Big Sky, and Sage
Our yarn is available in multiple yarn shops and on our website. About the Yarn: Tobacco Root Valley yarn is 100% wool, processed by our local mill, The Montana Wool Barn, each skein is 250 yds. 11 WPI DK weight. It has a wonderful bounce.
Types of Patterns: I am look for patterns to show off our beautiful homegrown wool yarn. I am looking for a couple different designs, I have been thinking about an over sized Shawl but am open to anything wearable.
I would like it to be a color work that would represent Montana's 4 seasons.
I have put some pictures together for inspiration on Pinterest ~ Montana Seasons
