New Website
It’s here! My new website is now live!
I am so pleased to share with you my new website and online shop for Plant Dyed Yarns and Wool Workshops.
It’s been a few weeks in the making, designed to give you lots of info without too much text but with the option to delve a little deeper into woolly goodness and more if you wish.
My online shop has a simplified style which I hope you will find easy to navigate, a place to purchase beautiful British wool plant dyed yarns, patterns and more.
All my workshops are displayed on one page with the option to book a place via the shop too.
I hope you will find it a wonderful place to visit where you will find yourself a little slice of Welsh mountain countryside and woolly goodness.
My thanks to Heather Birnie and Sarah Hellen for their help in the creation of nellieandeve.com
