Wavy Wool Club is back on 24th September at Altogether Otherwise.


Wavy Wool Club is an open, free-to-join space that connects farmers and creatives through wool. We gather every other Wednesday at Altogether Otherwise to spin, felt, card, and work with fleece that would otherwise go to waste. It’s a place to relax, learn new skills, and share stories about farming, craft, and the environment.


For this special series, we’ll follow the journey of wool from fleece to fabric. A sheep farmer will bring a raw fleece directly from their flock, and together we’ll work through each stage of its transformation. Over several sessions, we’ll learn to skirt, wash, card, and spin the fibres, with the chance to experiment along the way. By the end, we’ll have created our own small pieces of handmade woollen fabric, part craft, part conversation - a celebration of this undervalued, magical material.


No experience needed, just curiosity. Come for one session or follow the whole process from start to finish.


Altogether Otherwise is a place where things always happen—where making, doing, and shared endeavour are all part of the fun. We run workshops, create things, and keep the Hobby House buzzing with activity. No end goals, no pressure, just a space to tinker, try, and enjoy the simple joy of doing.
