New Opening Hours - (in place since January 2011) our millshop will be open as follows: Monday-Wednesday - closed, Thursday-Friday - 9am-5pm, Saturday (1st Saturday of every month) - 10am-2pm. These times do not affect the office which will continue to take calls from Monday-Friday - 9am-5pm.
Saturday Openings: The next one is 2nd June - from 10am - 2pm, then 7th July, 4th August and 1st September.
Texere "Stitch & Bitch" Knitting Group: Our knitting group has changed day and time, so if you couldn't make the previous one perhaps you can now come on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month, here at the mill from approx 6pm-8pm. Just bring your knitting or crochet work, a cosy cardi (it can get a bit chilly on winter nights) and join our merry band. It's free and you can just turn up! (We are here in the office anyway, so you are more than welcome to arrive early). |

 | Looking for a knitting wool, a weaving yarn, some wool tops or a crochet hook? - you've come to the right place. Our website is packed with the best selection around from felt making fibre and rug wool to crochet cotton and embroidery thread to suit all textile crafts and if you want undyed yarns we have a great selection and the Dylon dyes to transform it! We stock a wide range of knitting needles, knitting patterns, craft books on every subject, plus tassel moulds, beads, flower looms and embroidery hoops. |
|
 | To find the perfect yarn use the menu list on the left to guide you to the right place. So if you need a knitting wool to be made from alpaca or a weaving yarn to be made from linen either choose "shop by craft" to go to the knitting yarn section or "shop by fibre" to go to the linen yarns - simple! Our undyed yarns are listed by fibre - whether it be cotton, wool, silk, viscose or mohair, so you can search quickly and easily. |
|
 | We have an wide range of yarns exclusive to Texere (including our own brand knitting yarns, weaving yarns and rug wools), but if you are looking for Debblie Bliss, Sirdar, Twilleys, Artesano or any other brand we have lots to choose from. "Shop by brand" will direct you to your favourite knitting wool name from budget favourites such as King Cole, Cygnet Wools and James Brett through to Mirasol, Noro and Sublime for a luxurious treat. |

Put your colourful double knitting wool to good use this year and stay on top of the fashion trends this season.
Create Chunky Cable Knits and More with Double Knitting Wool
As the temperature drops and the Christmas season approaches, what better excuse to get wrapped up nice and warm in this season's latest designs. Shopping on the high street for winter wardrobe staples can cost a fortune. Invest in double knitting wool and save yourself a bundle.
The Cable Knit - Getting wrapped up to brave the cold is one of life's little pleasures and looking good is easy, even on a budget. Learning how to knit cables can make your woolly jumpers and sweaters stand out. A cable knit jumper is made up of vertically knitted panels bordered by purl stitches that are designed to show off the cable design. If you are new to knitting cables, start off slowly with a small knitted garment such as a pair of mittens or a woollen hat.
The Snood - This is the latest garment on the high street that is a cross between a scarf and a hood that when knitted can enhance your outfit instantly. These garments look stunning in every colour and are ideal for beginners. The design itself makes quite an impact and can be knitted using one block colour. Dig out your double knitting wool and create comfy accessories to keep you toasty this winter.
Create Seasonal Gifts with Double Knitting Wool
Warm winter garments make great gifts for the family and using double knitting wool is a cost effective way of giving fashionable gifts. There are a huge array of gift ideas from knitted toys to stunning scarves. In the weeks up to Christmas, stock up on double knitting wool and surprise your loved ones with knitted gifts for the holiday season.
