About The Knitwit Stable

The Knitwit Stable is a farm with an in-house knitting studio in Baambrugge. Our mission: we want to make transparency possible in every link in the wool chain and bringing the production of wool back again to the Netherlands on a small scale. We pay attention to the entire supplychain: keeping sheep and goats in an animal-friendly way and the sustainable re-use of existing Dutch wool, to processing it and making it into a local, fairly priced product.
