Fleece to Fancy I prepare raw fleece,card it, spin it into yarn, and create peg loom rugs and tapestry weavings.

Some of the most rewarding parts of making my rugs happen long before the finished design appears.

Hand rolling the sheep’s wool into a strong base is a slow, hands-on process that requires patience and care. It’s one of those traditional skills that has been passed down through generations and is just as relevant today as ever.

Every rug begins with this careful preparation, creating a beautiful handmade piece that’s built from the ground up using nothing but natural wool.

There’s something very special about making something entirely by hand. ❤️

Did you know wool is one of nature’s most sustainable fibres? 🌿

Each year, sheep grow a new fleece, making wool a renewable resource. When spun by hand on a spinning wheel, it becomes beautiful yarn without relying on synthetic fibres or mass production.

Wool is naturally biodegradable, durable and can last for generations when cared for properly.

Choosing traditional crafts is about more than making—it’s about valuing natural materials, reducing waste and appreciating the time and skill behind every handmade piece.

Exciting news! 🌿✨

I’m so excited to be displaying and demonstrating my handmade peg loom rugs at my first festival of the season The Green Gathering! You’ll find me in the Permaculture Area, where I’ll be sharing this traditional craft, showing how these beautiful rugs are made, and chatting to anyone who’s curious to learn more.

Every rug is handmade with care, using a timeless technique that celebrates creativity, sustainability, and craftsmanship. Whether you’d like to see the process, ask questions, or simply have a browse, I’d love to meet you.

If you’re coming along to The Green Gathering, please come and say hello – I can’t wait to share my passion for wood peg rug making with you!

See you there! 🌱🧶
