To celebrate we'll be launching a new pattern along with some other goodies. So stay tuned and watch this space!

The chill of autumn is upon us so we're thrilled to announce a new addition to the Nude Ewe knit kit collection. 'Waves' is a simple but elegant shoulder cosy, created just for us by Norwegian designer Eline Oftedal of High North Designs. It is designed to be knit in 'Wes' but of course can be made up in any of our wools.

Please note that the 'Waves' knit kit includes only wool and pattern and is knit on circular needles which are not included. (Brooch is for display purposes only and is not included in the Waves kit)

As a kit or knitted up, 'Waves' would make a great Christmas present so check it out!

After a great deal of number crunching and soul searching we have come to the conclusion that we must raise our wool and kit prices. The new prices will take effect on January 1.

The Nude Ewe returns all profits from wool sales back to the graziers from whom we obtain our fleeces. Their flocks are 'conservation grazers', that is the sheep are used to manage nature reserves and important habitats. These flocks are non-commercial and do not make money for their owners. The Nude Ewe was set up to help offset financial losses from shearing and livestock maintenance. In doing so we hope to support and promote the conservation graziers and their flocks keeping our countryside beautiful.

The Nude Ewe has not increased prices since we were established in 2008. Since that time our processing costs have increased, and as a result we now have much less to return to the graziers. We are increasing our prices so that we can once again give graziers a good profit from their fleeces. Please see our Products page for all the details.

We do hope our customers will understand this difficult decision we have had to take, and we thank you very much for your continued support.

We're super excited to announce the launch of our Nude Ewe t-shirt shop! Hosted by Spreadshirt, the shop currently offers two designs. Proclaim your love for the Nude Ewe with our logo, or celebrate Britain's ovine heritage with our cheeky sheep breeds design. And because we're non-profit, proceeds from t-shirt sales are reinvested back into the Nude Ewe project so we can grow and help even more conservation flocks keep our countryside beautiful.

Check out our shop today, and stay tuned as more designs are added!

We're thrilled to announce the launch of our Nude Ewe blog! The Nude Ewe is about more than just wool: it's about wildlife, economics and other stuff too. The blog gives us the chance to talk about what's on our mind in the world of  conservation grazing. And it lets you tell us what you think as well!
