FILATURE DU VALGAUDEMAR
Home and kitchen
It would seem that knitting is fashionable again. I know a person who brought back knitting yarn from Peru recently. In January 2016, I wrote an article about the company “Bergers Cathares”, which offers an original option to adopt a goat. This is another factory recommended by the same friend. This factory doesn’t breed its animals, but remains vigileant on the origin of fibres and animal shearing.

Company Profile:
Filature du Valgaudemar is located at the entrance of the Valgaudemar valley, at the edge of the Ecrins National Park.
Created in 1830, originally the spinning mill was working with sheeps’ wool, used to warmly dress the residents of this region and protect them from the cold and strenuous winters.
Following the evolution of fashion and techniques, the spinning mill adapted to the changing world. Today, the fibres used come from the whole world and are chosen with care to make high-quality yarns, so appreciated by knitters.
