WYS Wool Revival DK

80% Recycled British Wool / 20% Recycled Nylon

100g / 255m (246yd) / DK

Each year West Yorkshire Spinners process thousands of kilos of British wool; every spin leaves an excess amount of material that would usually wind up as ‘waste’. WYS love their wool, and they don’t like waste! So, they’ve given it the revival it deserves.

They start by collecting all this valuable and perfectly good fibre which is gathered after each clean down of their spinning frames. Next, they send it to their local production partner to card, comb and convert back into tops before it arrives back at their mill for spinning. This spun yarn then heads out again to be dyed locally, and once dyed, it’s back to WYS for finishing, balling and packing. Sustainability is at the heart of everything they do, and all of this takes place within a 10-mile radius – something which they’re extremely proud of.

Woolaballoo Sunday Crafternoons and PicKnit Parties 2025

£5.00 – £75.00

Woolaballoo Sunday Crafternoons and PicKnit Parties 2025

CRAFTERNOONS
Feb / Apr / May / Jul / Aug / Oct / Nov
These sessions will cost £5 per person and will remain in the smaller room.
Open from 1pm – 4pm.
If you are popping in to collect an order but not stay for the session, there will be no charge for anything but your order.

PICKNIT PARTIES
Mar / Jun / Sep / Dec
These sessions will be held in the large hall at Hamsteels, where we will be able to spread out from 10am – 4pm.
There will be a full buffet available as well as unlimited tea and coffee and a game of Sheepy Bingo.
Each PicKnit will be themed, and I will work towards having a project available should anyone want to join in.
The March PicKnit is still TBC. However, below are the general ideas I currently have for the rest:
Jun – Skill Swap
Sep – Birthday Party
Dec – Christmas Party
There will be an Annual Pass costing £75 which is a saving of £20 if you pay at each session.
The Annual Pass can be paid in three £25 monthly instalments to make it more affordable as I know not everyone can afford to pay out a large chunk of money at this time of year.
