Wool Clip Member Profiles
With a changing membership, we are made up of spinners, dyers, rug makers, knitters, crocheters, weavers and felt makers, as well as designers and farmers — many of us are several of those in one!
We work as a co-operative, enabling us to run the shop as a social enterprise and giving us access to each other’s skills and knowledge on everything from equipment and techniques, to suppliers and local history.
With wool as a common interest, some of us have been friends for years and others are new-found friends. We are currently all women but this isn’t intentional - it’s just the way it has worked out at present.
We aim to make the co-operative open and inclusive and we welcome new members, so long as they work predominantly with British wool and bring something new and different to our range.
PS We have four more members - Chris, Petra, Susanna and Paula - who are not shown on the group photograph but are very much part of The Wool Clip.
