The Little Spiral was born out of my love for fibre and everything to do with taking it from fleece to finished object. I found myself randomly helping people with their knitting on the bus and people even started to drop in on me when playing Warhammer with my kids to help them with a knitting or crochet issue. I quickly realised that sharing this love for fibre crafting made me immensely happy. If in some way I could make it my day job, well that would be smashing!
So now I run workshops to teach a variety of skills. From knitting to crochet to dyeing, spinning and weaving. in between showing people new techniques or teaching someone to knit from scratch I create a world of whimsical creatures to preserve some of the amazing antique and vintage textiles in my collection. The textiles I have are taken from items of clothing, worn beyond what a museum would want on display but parts still beautiful enough to use in some way. and it seems a waste for them to lie hidden in boxes when they should be on display!
I have limited availability whilst Bean is still a little Bean. If you are keen on learning a particular skill please send me a message and we can chat about what I can do for you. In the mean time I am exploring options on how to teach online so if that is of interest check back again soon!
