The Canadian connection.
York Mills, New Brunswick wool mill. The mill says it buys Canadian fleeces; Heritage is listed as 100% wool and Durasport as 80% wool and 20% nylon. Nylon and other component origins are not proved.
Before you buy or book.
Confirm the exact colour, dye lot, required quantity, pattern gauge and care with the mill. Online colour swatches can differ from the yarn. The Canadian wool claim does not establish the origin of Durasport’s nylon.

What this recognition means.
An Upvote feature award recognises an editorial listing with a useful public profile, a documented Canadian connection or Canadian availability, and direct links to the source. Every featured entry can use the same recognition.
It is not a competition result, quality certification, product test, verified purchase or a claim to be the best. Community votes remain separate. A Canadian business connection does not mean every item is made in Canada.
The badge and award are free and optional. No payment, backlink or promotion is required to keep a listing. Sharing one does not imply a partnership, and Upvote does not promise sales or search placement.
