For all things woollen, welcome to The Wool Clip
During January and early February we will be open Saturdays and Sundays only and resume daily opening from the 11th Feb 2012. But you can see some of our work in the Gallery at Rheged - see below for details of WOW.
We formed The Wool Clip co-operative in 2001; today we have 15 members and run the thriving Wool Clip shop in Caldbeck.
- Our work focuses on colour and creativity
- Our skills include farming as well as spinning, dyeing, knitting, crochet, weaving, felting, rugmaking and other textile arts
- Our aim is to share our enthusiasm for all things woollen.
We look forward to welcoming you to The Wool Clip and please keep in touch.
We are very pleased to be associated with the WOW exhibition at Gallery@Rheged.
The exhibition presents the work of about 20 contemporary British artists and designers who are inspirational in their creative uses of wool.
A number of our members have exhibits there including this amazing bench made by a local craftsman and covered in Herdwick wool knitted by our own Maron Woolcott. Further details were in our January e-newsletter. There are weekly workshops every Saturday and Marion and Jan are involved in a number of these.
The exhibition runs from 14 Jan to 15 April and we hope you get chance to visit - it is fantastic!
