Mine deep veins of texture in Quarry’s Wyoming-grown Targhee-Columbia wool.
Quarry begins with three strands of lofty, carded wool – rather than spinning them into individual plies, we nestle them together and gently twist the whole trio. The result is a plump, pillowy yarn with a soft, rustic hand that looks like a single ply, but with greater tensile strength and stitch definition.
Quarry’s “mock twist” construction creates subtle streaks of color rather than the tweedy flecks of its siblings Shelter & Loft. The effect reminds us of the striations in sedimentary rocks, inspiring our earthy, natural palette and giving Quarry its name.

Knitting with Quarry is a singular experience – since its three plies are entirely unspun, there’s nothing to counter the energy of the twist that binds them, giving the yarn a lively spring on your needles.
Quarry loves to cable and beautifully renders all kinds of textural stitch work, ideal for warm, lightweight sweaters, coats, blankets, and cozy accessories.
