The Woven Briar is a creative haven nestled in the heart of West Somerset.  With a passion for wool crafting, sustainable living, and the healing power of nature, I have dedicated myself to sharing craft and plant knowledge as a way to create connection with landscape.

My friendly sheep, the HoneyWoods Flock, spend their days with their lambs just across the road from the workshop, their beautiful rare breed fleeces forming the foundation of my craft.

Each sheep is blade shorn in early spring, cared for with attention to their well-being, and their wool is handled with great respect throughout the entire process.

Drawing on years of experience in spinning, dyeing, and weaving, as well as a deep connection to the plants that surround me, I bring a holistic approach to every aspect of my work.

I hold certificates in advanced bushcraft, wild medicine and ethnobotany, I have over 15 years’ experience teaching crafts and plant knowledge, I hold a level 3 Forest School qualification and am passionate about the ways mental health, nature and crafting come together. I enjoy teaching people from all walks of life, and welcome those who are neuro divergent or part of the LGBTQIA+ community; all are welcome.

Through The Woven Briar, I invite you to discover your own creative path, deepen your connection to the earth, and embrace a slower, more mindful way of living.
