We start with the best wool
We offer high
quality wool fabrics that have been milled especially for Mary
Flanagan Woolens. We feature textures that are the perfect weight

Our Dye Process
We use dyes which
are noted for superior color-fastness and wash-fastness. Our dye
formulas are our own creations derived from combinations of reds,
yellows, blues and black.
The final appearance of our unique colors depends on the fabric it
is applied to. It is only by repeating the same combinations of
wools in each dye bath that consistency of color is achieved. We
specialize in dyeing textured wools and we seldom dye over solid
white.
We are consistent in color to the best of our ability, we weigh the
wool to the gram and we measure the dye to the milliliter. Dye lots
may vary slightly with each dye bath due to those uncontrollable
forces of nature and a little thing called chemistry that rules even
our artistic world.
