Hello and welcome to the Bijou Basin Ranch website. Established in 2005, Bijou Basin Ranch is a small family owned and run yak ranch located just outside the small town of Elbert on the open plains of the Colorado outback about 65 miles southeast of Denver, Colorado.

Our primary goal is to produce and sell premium yak fiber products such as rovings, yarn, and yarn blends. To do this we raise registered full blooded yaks that have superior glossy coats which are harvested annually. We also supplement the fiber we harvest from our yaks by buying quality yak fiber from other yak ranchers across the country and abroad. Our yak fiber is then processed into yarn at various mills across the country or abroad and sold under the Bijou Spun label.

Don't forget that we have our own group on Ravelery called, appropriately enough, the Bijou Basin Ranch Fan Club ! Drop in to see reports from shows we visit, contests where you can win free yarn, see new products as they are released, and a whole lot more! We'll look for you there...
