A little bit about us

We're a small business run by Natasha Milton with help from her husband Nick. We've been going for about 8 years now, and have built up a loyal following both online and at shows.

We sell to a wide range of people including knitters, crocheters, wet felters, fibre artists, dolls makers and photographers.


Natasha


Natasha's love of wool began when she started spinning. That led her into hand-dyeing which became such a passion that she gave up her job in IT to set up Sheep On Mars. As well as spending most days dyeing yarn and sheep locks, she also finds time to use her dyed locks in her felted products such as shawls, scarves and hats. Natasha loves to create new things and is always looking to develop new products especially ones that incorporate her hand-dyed sheep locks.


Nick



Nick supports his wife Natasha in the running of Sheep On Mars. He's by her side when they go selling at wool festivals around the country and is often driving up narrow tracks in the countryside to visit farms where they buy beautiful fleeces straight from the sheep's back! It was Nick who came up with the name "Sheep On Mars" after Natasha asked him to think of names that are different and memorable. Nick also helps with the accounts, with marketing and with this website.
