Bristol’s Create Centre supports sustainable and ecological businesses. They have exhibition space, a Christmas Fayre and wall space for small shows. I have links and contacts in Bristol, this could be an ideal way to promote my work in the South west of the UK.

I am keen to support local (i.e. UK) wool producers, spinners and dyers who have a sustainable and eco-concious outlook.

So far I have found many companies, but these are my favourites who I intend to contact for yarn samples:

SHILASDAIR - naturally dyed, ethically sourced yarns from Scotland  

GREENFIBRES - naturally dyed, organic yarn (although not sure if UK wool)

LLYNFI TEXTILE COMPANY -this has everything I could ever ask for! Organic, naturally dyed yarn from Wales.

GARTHENOR ORGANIC PURE WOOL - this is undyed organic yarn from a variety of breeds and used as the base wool for Llynfi Textile Company.
