About Soundviewfibermill
Soundview Fiber Mill is a full-service fiber processing facility located in Washington state on the Puget Sound. They transform raw fiber into rovings, Lopi yarns, and rug yarns using 100% Mini Mills equipment from Canada. The mill specializes in small batch processing, accepting fleeces too small for larger mills. They also offer custom rug weaving services, creating rugs from customer fibers. All rug yarns are processed on-site using fibers grown by local Pacific Northwest farmers.
