23rd December 2024 - The shop is now open as normal. Sadly, due to the new European GPSR regulations, at present, I cannot send items to the EU or Northern Ireland. Any orders placed will be fully refunded. I am hoping to find a 'work around' for this issue. As soon as a way forward is found, I look forward to trading with my lovely customers in the EU again.
Dispatch times at present will be approximately 5-6 weeks
UK shipping will be sent via Royal Mail (either first class or tracked 48) and all international orders will be sent using a tracked method. Once your item is shipped I will send you an email with your tracking information. Please note - for some of the dispatch messages that I have sent from the shop email address have been delivered to spam/junk folders - so please check these folders to check for replies and tracking information.
In November last year, I met a lovely lady, Anne Arnold, at the Dumfries and Galloway Spinners, Weavers and Dyers Guild Gathering. I loved this picture and asked Anne if I could use this as an inspiration picture for some rolags. She graciously told me that I could.
I call this colourway Wild and Woolly, because the day I got this needle felted picture was so wet, wild and woolly! In fact when driving back to Cumbria, at one point I had to pull over because I could not see the road, the rain was so heavy.
These rolags are made from Exmoor Blueface (a cross between Exmoor horn sheep and BFL), corridale, masham and merino. I would class this blend as 'medium'. I could not wear this blend around my neck, but I would be very happy to wear it as a hat or gloves.
All of these fibres will felt, if you do not wish them to, hand wash in cool water.
