The Waste not wool story After selling out of their own wool clip in 2020, Leanna knew she needed more wool for her customers but not more sheep! Knowing how much wool was being wasted in the Okanagan she began reaching out to fellow shepherds in the Okanagan area of BC that might have wool they didn’t want. She made and sold calendars with photos of her own sheep to make money to get the wool processed. She hoped to save 15 fleeces but was thrilled to process 75! The processed wool and yarn would come to be known as “Waste Not Wool” on her Instagram and Etsy shop. A proud member of BC's Circular Economy Wool itself is a perfect example of a circular, sustainable resource. Our business is proud to be part of BC's developing circular economy. We are able to loop a "waste" material back into the economy by reworking it and turning it into a valuable product getting it back into the economy and out of the landfill!
