Keystone is the newest addition to the beloved Germantown family from Kelbourne Woolens. This is the yarn you have been waiting for. Keystone is crafted from a thoughtful blend of 70% deadstock acrylic and 30% North American wool. The result is a soft, sturdy, and versatile yarn as ideal for baby garments and dog sweaters as it is for heirloom afghans or community outreach projects.
Working directly with the mill that makes Germantown, we’re utilizing more than 59,000 pounds of acrylic fiber abandoned at their warehouse. By blending the same wool that is used in Germantown with the deadstock acrylic, we’re extending the use of the fiber, which in turn, reduces waste and increases supply chain efficiency. Built for real-life and made to last, Keystone is a classic, easy-care worsted weight yarn that perfectly blends practicality with purpose.

Kelbourne Woolens: Keystone
Kelbourne Woolens was founded in 2008 by Courtney Kelley and Kate Gagnon Osborn. After running a sole distributorship for almost a decade, in 2017 we poured our years of experience into our own line of yarns under the Kelbourne Woolens brand. Our primary focus is creating yarn with accessibility, quality, and functionality. The yarns are meant to be worked with, worn, and enjoyed by all, with as few barriers to entry as possible.
Kelbourne Woolens is for those who love the craft as much as we do.
We strive to design yarns that fill a gap – not only within the Kelbourne Woolens line itself, but in the industry overall. Working directly with mills throughout the world, we are able to work closely with manufacturers who share the same core beliefs of high-quality production paired with environmental and social practices that respect and value the planet.
