Felted Goat’s Milk Soap on a Rope
Felted soap is a unique and natural product where wool fibres are wrapped around a bar of soap, then gently agitated with warm water to form a snug, textured casing. This wool acts as a washcloth, offering mild exfoliation while the soap lathers beneath it. As you use the felted soap, the wool gradually tightens around the shrinking soap, extending its life and creating less waste. Wool is naturally antimicrobial and biodegradable, making felted soap both practical and eco-friendly. Once the soap is gone, the wool casing can be repurposed or composted. Perfect for gifts or a unique addition to a bathroom!
Supporting British wool means embracing sustainable, local craftsmanship that directly benefits farmers, artisans, and the environment. British wool, sourced from native sheep breeds raised across the UK, is known for its durability, natural warmth, and unique textures. It’s a renewable, biodegradable resource, making it an eco-friendly choice for clothing, crafts, and home goods.
By choosing British wool, you’re helping to sustain traditional farming and shepherding practices while reducing carbon footprints associated with long-distance imports. Supporting this local industry also preserves biodiversity by encouraging the raising of native sheep breeds suited to the British climate and landscape.

Summer Shawl
I make these shawls using Tussah silk hankies, which I laid out over the full length and width of my table. Next
merino wool is added followed by Blueface Leicester and Wensleydale locks,, plus mulberry silk. Once the laying out is completed I damped the shawl and leave it overnight to let the scales on the wool open ready for the felting process. This involves rubbing the shawl with a homemade olive oil soap solution. This helps the wool begin to bind together, one the materials become a fabric I then roll it up and roll it back and forth about 800 hundred times.
It is then laid out on the table and checked that all the fibres have felted/ locked together followed by gently fulling it.
