Welcome to Wheeldale Woolcrafts fibre supplier.

Welcome to
Wheeldale Woolcrafts suppliers of natural and hand dyed spinning and felting fibres. I am redesigning my website so please bookmark it to visit later to see project ideas for spinning, felting and weaving. I have a new online shop and new products are added frequently

We are located high up in one of England's most beautiful National Parks, the North Yorkshire Moors. Just two miles from Goathland, we are deep in what is now more affectionately known as heartbeat country.

What makes me so distinctive is that the majority of our products are sourced locally, from our flock of sheep outside Wheeldale's woolcraft studio. We know where all our fibres come from and can name many of the sheep who have happily parted company with their fleeces. We stock British tops (Shetland and Bluefaced Leicester) for spinning and feltmaking.

I have a new online shop, and can now take orders online or by phone between 8am and 10pm.

Wheeldale

When I was 16, I saw a book on spinning in a second-hand shop in Helmsley. I didn't buy it, and regretted it ever since! I have never seen that particular book again. About a year later I persuaded my parents to pay for me to go on a spinning course and I have been 'hooked' ever since.

Curiosity led me to explore natural dyeing, felt making and weaving. As my knowledge and interest grew, I set up my own workshops and Wheeldale woolcrafts evolved from there.

I have turned my hobby into my business, I enjoy all aspects of woolcraft, and would like to share this wonderful world with you. Visitors to Wheeldale Woolcraft are very welcome but please phone first. I do hope you find what you are looking for within this site.

Regards, Phillippa Joad
