I Love That Wool...
"LOVE THAT WOOL" are words carefully chosen by Gaynor Wilson to describe her business. She uses this phrase everyday of her working life, not just to reassure her customers of the quality of the wool she sells, but to personally endorse it as a wool enthusiast. Gaynor loves to wear wool and fully appreciates how beautiful and timeless a knitted garment can look. She is very knowledgeable on all matters woollen and is known amongst her friends and customers as someone who knows how to dress well with an unique flair, a quality that's evident in her management of Love that Wool.
Business and history
Love that wool is currently located in Stockport's old town and is one of the thriving small businesses housed in its beautiful Victorian Market Hall. Today's business is a continuation of the one started by Gaynor's father John, who in 1966 July left steady employment and took the risk of starting his own business. Initially trading in the weekly markets around the North West, John finally took premises in Stockport around 25 years ago and became known as "John the Wool" his nickname amongst the other local traders. In anticipation of her fathers retirement, Gaynor became involved full time in the business seven years ago, though she has worked with her dad on and off for many years.
