Cowgirlblues is a Cape Town-based dye house and design studio specializing in South African wool and mohair. After an international career as a strategy consultant, founder Bridget Henderson returned to South Africa to live in Cape Town. While recovering from extreme burnout, she took up knitting and crafting again. Having no formal training or background in working with textiles, Bridget experimented with texture, patterns, and colours. After getting frustrated at not finding suitable wool for a project locally, she decided to start spinning and dyeing her own, so the idea for the Cowgirlblues brand was born.
