Virtual MOW Schedule
In normal times we’d be polishing our machines, liaising with the marquee company, and ordering lashings of local baked delights to get ready for our Mill Open Weekend (5th – 7th June). Unfortunately, we’ll be missing seeing you in person – but, instead, we’ve decided to throw open our (virtual) doors and invite you all inside the Mill for an extended weekend of woolly delights, nattering and stories about how our machines work. We’ve all put our heads together and come up with a list of exciting goings on. We hope that doing things this way will enable you folk who live further away to ‘visit’ and learn a little more than usual about our Mill and the process in which we prepare and blend our tops and spin our yarns – which is rather fab!
Below you’ll find a line up of all the bigger bits, but we’re also planning lots of smaller videos and glimpses of each machine and our Showroom over on social media… Plus we’ll have oodles of bargains and exciting limited editions to snaffle up too.
