Belfast Mini Mills, LTD. manufactures a full line of cottage industry fiber spinning machinery. The machinery enables the processing of raw animal fibers or man-made fibers into yarn. The Belfast Mini Mill is capable of processing small batches down to ounces or grams in size or large commercial size batches of tons. Although the individual machines are small, relative to a large commercial mill, they have been designed to be modular. We can configure a Belfast Mini Mill to do just what you want in the highest quality end products and required production. We are also capable of customizing our equipment to facilitate operation with other makes of machinery. Products:

I am a knitter, mom, cyclist, musician, triathlete, gardener, cat lover, and more. I come from a family of artists and musicians, and am so lucky that my extended family showed me the knitting ropes many years ago. I often struggled to find just the right yarn for my projects, and so decided to use my creative talents to create exactly what I am passionate about: Colour-rich and wearable yarns in luxury fibres. Alley Cat’s collections include yarns from a variety of cruelty-free sources, and we work hard to choose local and Canadian where possible for all of our business needs. Products:

The mill was first started in 1857 by George Lister who was one of the original grant holders in the Harvey area. Over the first 30-35 years the mill changed hands a few times. In the 1890’s it was bought by Roy Little, who ran it until 1916 when illness forced his family to move to the Prairies for a dryer climate. At this time the business was bought by Mathew Briggs and Howard Little, giving us the name, it has held to this day. Products:

Fleece & Harmony Woolen Mill is the culmination of a passion project that took us from the big city to the pastoral fields and shores of Prince Edward Island. In Prince Edward Island, life moves at a slower pace. It’s not magic, it’s just that we take our time. Our Passion is To raise animals the natural way, on the pasture. To hand-craft every detail, in every small batch of wool and yarn. To ensure our fibres come from a good place. Like our backyard. To support our local producers and encourage the expansion of our local fibreshed through local purchasing, and initiatives like the PEI Fibre Trail. Products:

In our little shop at the HighTales Alpaca Farm, we have hand-made knitted and crocheted items available, insoles made from our felts, 100% alpaca fibre dryer balls and Canadian machine-made Alpaca socks. Our yarn comes on cones from the mill and we wrap them off into 100 gram skeins or hanks. Of course they are all natural colours, some 100% alpaca, and others blended with merino or bamboo. We make our own olive oil soaps, as well. No scents or colours added, ideal for folks with sensitive skin. This year we will also have felted soaps, that is, our olive oil soap has alpaca fibre felted around the bar for a lovely exfoliating experience. Products:
