About Roses Workshop

Roses Workshop

Handmade from British Wool and Harris Tweed

I design and create unusual fashion and home accessories from my workshop in Lancashire, England, and more recently my own weaving from a barn in Scotland.

As a child in the hills of southern Scotland I was surrounded by sheep farms, set against the pastel heathers and brackens of the higher peaks. The traditional skills of spinning, weaving and knitting wool, as well as sewing and embroidery, were passed on to me by older generations.

My passion is for British wool in many forms, not only knitted but also including the world renowned hand-woven Harris tweed. I also turn fluffy wool into solid felt. Roses Workshop was born of recession, giving the impetus to lift a hobby into a business. Starting out with just a few knitted hats for friends, I now have a range of fashion, home, and gift items, all still handmade personally.

An unexpected gain from the months of lockdown at my father's cottage, was that we had the time to restore the four-shaft floor loom that had been "resting" in the barn. Some of my own hand-woven items will be added to my shop soon.

As well as selling my handmade items online, I also attend various fairs, festivals and exhibitions. This is a great way to meet the artists and crafts-people, and support other British businesses.
