Harrisville Designs

The town of Harrisville, New Hampshire has a history of textile mills dating back to 1790.  Harrisville Designs is a family owned business which runs its mill in the original red brick building. 


The distinctive look of the yarns is a result of care and attention to detail at every step of the spinning process.  The fleece is dyed-in-the-wool to maximize brightness and fastness and then several colors are blended together before the carding process to create the beautiful heather mixes.
