from flock to shop
shepherd & maker
Working with the wool from my flock of rare breed British sheep, I design and make a range of limited edition, artisan homewares and lifestyle products that combine contemporary design, quality craftsmanship and true provenance.
Passionate about traceability I produce beautiful textiles products for the home that can be followed from design, through production and right back to my flock of sheep that graze the Cotswolds countryside. My happy sheep grow a new fleece every year, which I have processed at a specialist woollen mill in Cornwall. I then knit with the yarn in my studio, using a hand powered knitting machine, to create very special pieces with real provenance. For more information about my products you can have a good nosey around my online shop or contact me.
