Filigree is a 1-ply sport weight yarn with generous yardage. This yarn is 100% Canadian, made with a dorset-base down type wool sourced from Ontario, spun in New Brunswick, and hand-dyed in our Montreal studio. Filigree has a beautifully “toothy” texture and comes in 24 rich and vibrant shades, making it a perfect choice for colourwork.

Circle R Livestock: A Family Farm
One of our big goals for Sweet Paprika this year was to source a new line of Canadian wool yarns. We started contacting farms and mills last January, researching options, connecting with farmers, and collecting samples. Eventually we settled on working with wool from , a family farm in southern Ontario operated by Romy and Ryan Schill and their children.
