It’s the last day of dyeing before I move in to the new unit next week. It will feel like a luxury having a dedicated workshop and dyeing room. Plus this will give me more space in the new shop space making it more customer friendly and accessible.

Well, it’s been a while since I first announced that Flock & Skein was moving! As usual, things haven’t quite gone to plan, but I can finally share our moving date!

We’ll be closing on Sunday 18th October and reopening in our new premises on Saturday 24th October!

And for those who don’t know, we’re not moving far at all… in fact, we’re just moving next door!

The new space will give us more room to grow, create and bring you even more British woolly goodness.

Although the shop will be closed for moving week, you can still browse and place your orders through our website as usual.

Thank you for your patience and continued support. I can’t wait to welcome you into our new home at Flock & Skein!

Watch this space for more updates!

Dyed onto beautiful North Country Mule wool, these warm, cosy shades are perfect for needle felting and wet felting. Perfect for creating Christmas gingerbread houses, gingerbread people and magical autumnal scenes.

Available now from Flock & Skein, in store and online.

The Alchemist Collection has been conjured…

Five spellbinding colourways, each with its own story, inspired by witchcraft, mythology, woodland magic, autumn and a little darkness.

All five are hand-dyed on DK Wensleydale Wool, with Knot Magic also available in 4ply Wensleydale & Aran Merino Wool.

Covenfire
Syrinx’s Elixir
Witch’s Kiss
Death’s Green Elixir
Knot Magic

These are limited colourways, so once the spell is broken, they’re gone.
