The Original Targhee/Columbia Blend!
The Chester family began breeding and developing the Targhee/Columbia Sheep in the late 1990s to produce a high-end, luxury fiber. After nearly 10 years in development, this traditional wool line was born! The fiber creates a yarn that blends together loft and softness. As the originators of this beautiful blend, Cestari hopes you enjoy their Traditional Collection.
