Welcome

Welcome to Forest Crafters.  We are a husband and wife team based in Nottinghamshire who are enthusiastic handcrafters.

Currently we are producing wool and fibre related handcrafts as well as hand turned woodwork.

Our range includes hand spun yarn, created from hand washed, dyed and processed British fleece including Rare Breeds, the majority of which is locally sourced. Someof the fibre is hand dyed in small batches using natural ingredients from our garden or kitchen.  Some of this yarn is used with commercial fibres to make felted creations including bags.

We are also designing and creating fibre related tools including: wooden turned nostepinnes, spindles, spinning wheel orifice hooks, weaving stick kits, peg loom weaving kits and shawl pins.

We are currently working on adding in buttons and toggles to our range.  We sell our products through craft fairs and on-line in our Etsy shop.

We are also happy to fulfil customised orders, the latest one being jumbo weaving sticks.
Thank You for looking.
