Fall Travels, Stop Five: Mammoth Site

Fall Travels, Stop One: Brown Sheep Yarn Company

Just outside Scottsbluff, NE, you can find the factory for Brown Sheep Yarn, a local, homegrown, Made in America yarn company. Mr. Cool's hat for the winter is made of their lovely yarn. We didn't get on the tour this time, but I did find some great factory seconds yarn at $13/pound!
