Hope to see you there!
As we're into December, it's OK to mention Christmas ;-)
We've lots of gift ideas including kits to make hats, socks, Christmas decorations, pictures, hares (and Herdwicks) and even beginners' weaving kits.
A lot more options in our online shop too.

Certainly cold and frosty and forecast to carry on for a few days yet. Lots of cosy woollen items at the Wool Clip, from gloves and hats to socks and hotwater bottle covers.
And a gorgeous lambswool cot blanket.
We're open 11am to 4pm at Caldbeck apart from Mondays.
It's wet and wild out there - but so far, so good with the Caldbeck shop staying open. We're here 11am to 4pm each day apart from Mondays. Can we tempt you with some options for wrapping up warm this autumn?

Brilliant to see Emma and Sue still in touch - but hope one's feeling much better and one's seeing those first novels disappearing off the proverbial shelves!
Morning - a bit of advance notice - not exactly wool but definitely natural fibres and coming to #KeswickAlhambraCinema later in September. buff.ly/44sMZDq
