The Lindsays Homestead

The Lindsays Homestead Custom orders are always welcome and I ship across Canada and Europe Williams, Ontario. All of my handmade items are made by me in my home.

I offer fine quality knit items using natural fiber hand-spun yarns as well as creating fur and leather items

I have been in business since 2005 and love creating new items. Lindsay's Homestead was started in 2007 when my family moved to our own little corner of the world in St. I found it very hard to find products that were handmade and from local materials, so I started making my own. Taking it one step further I learned how to produce my own hand-spun yarns. Most of my materials are from farms located within 50kms of our original homestead. Following a major move to the Northwest Territories in 2015 my raw fibres are still coming from these small, family run farms in Ontario. I do the majority of my own processing and dyeing right here in my home or backyard. I get great joy from creating and sometimes designing these wonderful items. My family and I know the joy that can come from a handmade item and the thrill of tasting something that is fresh and home made. We are now at the point where we can share this with others. Being able to bring our products to others, for their enjoyment is a dream come true. There is nothing so wonderful as having something that was made just for you!!. We look forward to being able to give you a bit of our little homestead!

Incase you are curious.

She is a Rognvaldson castle style wheel. Dated to the 1860's based on the finial turning. They (father and 2 sons) came to Canada in 1920 and created spinning wheels till the 1970s. They are considered the Rolls Royce of Canadian spinning wheels for the time.

When you get tagged on the local salvagers page....and you are in your car within 10 minutes.

She is complete and in working order. I need to find or have made a wooden peg and replace cordage and needs a minor repair. She is from Iceland (Norse design) and came with a bit of family history. Estimate from the mid to late 1800s, but might be older.

Doing some research to see if i can find a maker or at least a design timespan.

She is beautiful!!

These soon to be fingerless mittens are waiting on a pile to be sewed into shape. I am obsessed with them. 100% Peruvian Cotton, so perfect for that transition season.

They will be an adult medium when finished. I promise pictures when they are done.
