We are a FULL SERVICE, small scale, wool and fiber processing mill.

We, the "Ladies of the Mill', have years of animal husbandry experience. We care for animals, their wool and fiber and we treat your wool and fiber as if it were our own.

We take pride in every process that we do and it shows in the final product.

We are a Custom Wool and Fiber Processing Mill which means we will work with you during each step so that you will receive the end product that you expect.

Individual attention is given to each fleece.

Each fleece is weighed and tagged with a routing slip. And the routing slip stays with the fiber throughout every stage of processing.

Your own fiber is always returned to you.


Our Process

Our processing operation begins with skirting and/or handpicking followed by machine picking which opens up the fibers for better cleaning.

We scour twice and rinse three times. BSQW does not use harsh chemicals in scouring but rather environmentally safe agents.

At times we find that an additional scouring is necessary, if grease has hardened during storage or an excessive amount of grease and dirt is trapped in the fine wool.

We use an extractor to remove excess water between each scour/rinse cycle, taking care to avoid agitations.

Next the wool/fiber is naturally air-dried. After the wool has completely dried it is again machine picked, conditioned and ready to be carded into small batts, roving or yarn.
