John Arbon Textiles

We are an independent family run business making Yarns and Fibre Tops in our small scale, worsted spinning Mill in North Devon (one of only a handful still operating in the UK). Where possible we source fibre locally, or through trusted suppliers in the Falklands and worldwide. We use predominantly vintage machinery that we have lovingly restored and maintained to create wonderful artisan goods using a hands-on approach to production. All our Yarn and Tops ranges are blended and designed by our team at the Mill, inspired by the natural world around us and our interests in art, music and nostalgia. We currently offer our Exmoor Sock, Devonia and Knit by Numbers ranges for wholesale, as well as offering a range of undyed bases for hand-dyers. We are currently taking wholesale pre-orders for our Yarnadelic range which will be ready to ship by the autumn.
