Derwent Products

We produce peg loom rugs, cushion covers, pet beds and seat covers; woven by hand in a variety of styles and colours using the wool from our pedigree sheep.

We take our raw fleece and process it every step of the way using traditional methods to produce a truly handmade and homegrown product.

Raw Fleece

Have a dream crafting project in mind? Well now you can choose the perfect fleece to get your project started. Our prize winning sheep produce fleeces in a range of earthy tones from shades of chocolate to lustrous slate greys. Every single fleece is unique in colour and high in quality.

We always have plenty of fleece in our barn - contact us if you would like to come and visit so you can pick your own!

Crafting Supplies

Sometimes your crafting project needs a helping hand to get going.

We can provide washed fleeces, washed and carded batts, core wool, locks & curls and hand dyed fibre from our Shetland, Teeswater, Kerry Hill and Clun Forest sheep.

Not only do we process all our own fleeces right here on the farm indvidually by hand, but we can also normally tell you the name of the sheep who grew it for us.

To place an order you can either contact us directly through our website here after browsing the products below or if you are in a rush you can place your order through our Etsy shop.

• We always have more fleece available than what we have listed on here so please get in touch if you are after something specific.

• We also welcome visits, by appointment, to our fleece barn where you can pick your very own fleeces from our collection.
  

• P&P is included in the price of our large raw fleeces where stated and all other items start at £3.50 for Royal Mail postage. Postage can be combined for multiple orders and will be quoted on weight.

• Refunds of the item cost excluding P&P will be issued for items returned in original unused condition, if they are not to your requirement. P&P for these at the buyers expense. No refunds available once a raw fleece/part fleece has been washed.
  
  Please contact us for advice on how to get the best from your fleece purchase if you are unsure of anything. We can also match fleeces to your skill level and equipment.

Raw Fleeces

We love breeding and caring for a variety of pedigree native British sheep breeds. By purchasing wool from pedigree British traditional and native breeds you are helping to contribute to their conservation by giving them an extra purpose. We take great pleasure in offering the very best fleeces available for raw purchases.

We heavily skirt our fleeces to remove the dirty belly and courser back leg wool to leave you with the prime neck and body section - minimising your waste and making them great value for money.

Natural Beauty

Our beautiful sheep produce premium fibre in a range of stunning natural colours - they are perfect just the way they are. So, we have washed, combed, carded and processed them by hand from raw to provide you with the perfect blank canvas for your next crafting project, whether it’s spinning, weaving or felting.

I Can See a Rainbow

Sometimes we like to add a bit of colour to brighten up a drizzly day in the Lake District. These are the items we currently have in stock but we can also produce and dye to order if you have something specific in mind.
