Travis Tweed Handwoven Sachets

• Product description

  High in the mountains north of Steamboat Springs, Colorado, textile designer and weaver Barb Lynn of Travis Tweed creates artisanal woolen fabrics in a rustic timber-framed workshop of her own design, built from locally milled pine.

  Blending silver sagebrush that she wild harvests on a friend’s Wyoming ranch with lavender grown on a neighbor’s farm, Barb stitches her handwoven fabrics into fragrant sachets that delight the senses.

  Enjoy our exclusive offering of these special sachets, each featuring a beautiful Travis Tweed fabric custom woven from Brooklyn Tweed yarns, sourced from wool grown in Colorado, Nevada, Utah, & Wyoming.

  Sewn to a backing of natural linen, each sachet has an embroidered “Hand Made: Travis Tweed + Brooklyn Tweed” label and thread loop for hanging.

  Tuck into a knitting bag, car, or closet, to keep woolens fresh and spirits lifted – a lovely gift for yourself, friends and family.
