Lovely to hear @maryportas talking to Sheep Inc on The Kindness Economy podcast about using ethically resourced wool but could we also use some British wool? It is on our doorstep and lots going to waste or storage @BritishWool @circulareconomy @ellenmacarthur #sheepinc
Just catching up by posting our last blog details about the spinning of our yarn. So excited to now have it in our hands! woolcircle.uk/news/s28vtryxt…
We’ve been a bit quiet recently but it doesn’t mean we haven’t been busy! The yarn has finally come back from the mill just In the nick of time for a fair in Hebden Bridge last Saturday and a huge effort on Sunday to get the first yarn in the post
@kariebookish Take care and get well soon
Congratulations! Fantastic achievement and hopefully the start of something big. It is the future!

@kariebookish Stick to your values and core beliefs. Once you leave those behind you will never be happy, no matter how successful you may become. Perseverance, grit, resilience and the ability to keep coming back for more will get you through plus surround yourself with good people

Wearing Wool Well known for its warmth but is wrongly accused of being itchy. 🐑 The myth has encouraged people to synthetic and polyester clothing. But this is changing! #BritishWool #WearWool #LookForTheShepherdsCrook #Sleep #Skin #Antibacterial #Breathable #Warm #Cooling
Wool Circle retweeted
Traceability provides a level of assurance from farm gate to shop front. John Lewis & Partners are collaborating with Waitrose, Hypnos Beds and The Woolkeepers® to produce 100% traceable British wool mattresses. Find out at woolkeepers.co.uk #woolkeepers #brannacholann
So only 7 hours to go on the Kickstarter and we have now have a massive £25,000 !!!!! Head on over for your last chance to help fund the next stage of our exciting project. And a huge thank you to all our supporters 🙏 #wool #knitting #yarn kickstarter.com/projects/proje…

We've partnered with @JohnLewisRetail to create a new range of mattresses made from 100% traceable & sustainably sourced wool from our sheep farmers. We aim to prevent unnecessary waste, support farmers and the British wool industry #PartnersAgainstWaste bit.ly/3Ba5JJt
@waitrose @Campaignforwool @JohnLewisRetail Great idea! 👍
@ThoughtIKnewHow So true. And all it needed was a farmer, a knitter and someone who knows the production process to get connected. It’s all about contacts and networking and having a shared vision. It’s been so inspiring to work together on this
@calimccammon @knittaphd 😂Please knit responsibly! When the fun stops, you stop ✋
@greenbeltsal @Sharpr1966 @tomheapmedia This is another area we want to look at. With all the retro fit required for old housing stock to meet energy efficiency demands wool is a perfect, environmentally friendly option
Many sheep farmers are forced to burn their fleeces after shearing, as they are worth so little money. Three UK business owners are looking to change all of that by proving there can be a much more positive solution. But we need your help!
Fantastic coverage and incredibly we now have over £20k pledged! Thank you to all who have supported us and more big news coming soon 😊
This is a great story about how we can use more locally sourced wool - we're hoping to use some of their learnings in our own wool journeys. Check out @ProjectLonk for more info. halifaxcourier.co.uk/news/people/it…
