Meet the Maker: Claire of White Hill Wool đâ¨
Our Maker of the Month for June is Claire, the talented fibre artist behind White Hill Woolâa slow craft studio nestled on her East Yorkshire farm. From her peaceful countryside surroundings, Claire transforms the wool from her own flock of sheep into beautifully handcrafted needle-felted pieces full of character and charm.
Each creationâwhether it's a festive garland, seasonal decoration, prickle-free cactus or sweet felted cardâis made with care, inspired by nature, rural life, and a deep love for sustainable, hands-on making. Her work radiates warmth, texture, and the joy of slow living.
Claire says sheâs âhappiest with a felting needle in hand and wool all around,â and that gentle, grounded spirit shines through in every piece. Whether you're after a rustic gift or something handmade to brighten your home, White Hill Wool offers something truly special.
Follow Claireâs creative journey on Instagram at .wool and support an independent maker doing beautiful things with British wool. There is a variety of Claire's creations available at Botany Boutique in Hornsea.
