The angry sheepdog studio: Where craft meets care
At Oddball Homestead, the journey begins with our sheep, the land, and the honest, hands-on care of small-scale farming and humane shearing. Angry Sheepdog Studio carries that work forward, transforming rescued fleeces into thoughtfully processed fiber and finished goods. This isn't just about material; it's about work with a soul, crafted with deep respect and a touch of rebellious spirit.
Our closed-loop fiber story begins
Our unique partnership creates a truly closed-loop fiber story. It begins right here, where sheep are raised on our farm or ethically sourced from others. Their fleeces are either rescued or carefully purchased, and sheared with the utmost care by Oddball Homestead. Every fiber has a past, and we honor it from the very start.
From fleece to intentional fiber
Once collected, each fleece is meticulously evaluated and saved. We believe in preserving and processing fiber with intention, not just for profit. This hands-on process ensures that every strand is treated with respect, allowing us to prepare it for its next life, rather than letting it go to waste.
Crafted with soul, offered with purpose
At Angry Sheepdog Studio, this carefully processed fiber is then spun, crafted, and offered as unique finished pieces. This entire journey allows us to honor the animal, significantly reduce waste, and give forgotten fleeces a second chance. From pasture to your finished piece, every step is guided by a deep respect—for the sheep, the fiber, and the people who truly value authentic craft. You'll find a studio that stands up for forgotten fleeces, honors the animals, and invites makers into a deeper relationship with their materials.
