Cornish Wools - our new website and Village Crafts for Knitters!!

We have finally made it after a long 5 months!!! our new Cornish Wools website is up and running and there for all to see. It's been a long hard slog but it really has been worth it and I am so pleased with the final result. It will need some tweaking as we go along and there are lots more items to put into the online shop but what a relief........



And now we are now well into July and the Summer is here and for a real change we have had some lovely summer weather this year. The Village Crafts shop is looking good with all the tables and parasols and Jenny and Lisa's Peppercorn Summer Cafe doing a roaring trade with their bistro type meals and snacks. Inside we have new displays of jewellery and artistic feltwork by Teona and Patricia Lomax. The Gallery is now the textile crafting shop with lots of super new knitting yarns, knitting patterns, needles and accessories.




We also have a spinning and weaving corner with the Ashford Traditional Spinning Wheel, Ashford Knitters Loom, carders, drop spindles and so that you can get spinning our own Cornish wools carded wool bats and pencil rovings. We also have the Schopple Finger Wolle which comes in an exciting colour range and is a wonderful way to get started on the wheel.





In the craft and gift shop we have a interesting range of greetings cards, lots of artist cards and photo art views to 'Stan and his Surfboard', traditional and
just plain funny! If you need a greetings card then this is the place to find one.

We also have our very own 'Perranuthnoe Greetings Card' desiged especially for us by local artist Wendy Fyers. Its quite unique.
