Guaranteed 100% British wool, certified by British Wool Board.
A great company really wide selection without being overwhelming. Loved the idea of the express pack which includes postage perfect for a newbie to felting Sue
The perfect base colour for many of the wildlife 'paintings' I make, and the fineness of the wool gives me scope for fine detail.
Beautiful soft wool nepps, they took the dye so well. I have been using them for inclusions in my nuno felted pieces, they hold well and felt into the whole. They have allowed me to produce tiny detail such as snowflakes, flowers, pebbles and scarf details. My favourite way to use them is in clusters, either natural for delicate items or dyed for a colour pop.
I have had my carder from wingham for around 6 months now. From opening the extremely supportive packaging to constantly using my carder I have been delighted with it. The construction of the carder is robust, made by a craftsman rather than mass produced, it feels strong and looks good.
On searching for the item it said out of stock on the website, but I phoned the office at wingham and they promised delivery as soon as they were back in stock. I expected to wait a couple of months, but it was delivered within 2 weeks.
The wide base allows for wider batts. I am thrilled with my toy. It's allowing me to be creative while using wool that has become 'tired'.
Only thing I'm not completely happy with is I ordered a long handle. That hasn't been an improvement, but totally my own fault. I'll replace it with a short handle sometime soon.
Before assembling the wheel you need to wax or treat all the wood, and then once assembled you need to oil some moving parts. If this requirement had been made clear I would have bought some wax and oil at the same time to avoid extra shopping and delay.
Otherwise it's really good. Assembly instructions are easy to follow and all the parts fit together well.
A lovely strong fleece. It spins well and easily. I use it for weaving but it would also be fantastic for knitting strong outer garments. It has a nice lustre to it.
I am pleased i bought this fleece. It is very strong and has a lovely softness to it. I particularly like the slight variation in shade when spun.
Love these mini carders, good quality and size for my purpose. I’m new to wet felting and am finding these easy to handle and achieve the results I’m looking for. Good variety of merino colours included and delivery and communication throughout the process excellent. Thank you.
Very good delivery! exactly when you said...!
It spins deliciously...
I hope you're moving in well.
You're so much nearer for us-we'll be along to see you! Thank you!
