A family owned and operated business, Wingham Wool have been trading from our base in Wentworth, South Yorkshire for over 40 years. Today we offer one of the largest selections of materials and equipment for fibrecrafts in the world, supplying both retail and wholesale. With a wide range of manufacturing taking place on-site we’re able to create a practically unlimited selection of blending and colour options in many different wool breeds
Back when we first started, pre-internet days, Ruth Gough recognised that while there was plenty of yarn for knitting and crochet available, the UK market was lacking natural British wools and fibres suitable for hand spinners. Never one to dilly-dally, Ruth went direct to the source: The industrial mills of West Yorkshire, once the global hub of industrial textile manufacturing.
As Wingham grew over the years we expanded our range, stocking more breeds of natural wools and developing our own range of fibres colours exclusive to us. We were able to expand our in-house manufacturing and established our own mill in Wentworth. From this point we could design and create our own blends, fulfilling orders from a few hundred grams to a few hundred kilos.
Today Ruth’s son Tom and his partner Ellie have taken over the daily running of Wingham. Along with a fantastic team of office staff, parcel packers and machinists Wingham Wool aim to be keeping fibre-crafters around the world stocked up with all their favourite fibres for many years to come.

Items much be returned to us in the same condition in which they are sold.

As of June 2014 the Distance Selling Regulations have been replaced by the UK Consumer Contract Regulations. The most important details are as outlined below.
Occasionally we may get a price wrong online or discounts incorrectly applied. We will always try and honour the price displayed, however this may not always be possible. Acceptance of an order contract does not occur until items are shipped. If we are not able to honour the displayed price we will always contact you and ask if you would like to pay the difference or cancel the order.
Your right to cancel starts the moment you place your order and doesn’t end until fourteen working days from the day after you receive your goods. Goods to be returned must be unused. The cost of returned unwanted goods must be paid by the customer.
Orders for tailor made items, such as personalised blends, may not be cancelled once the blend has been made. However, we will always check to see if we can resell the blend. If we can we may refund payment.

Items will be delivered within 30 days of the order being placed, unless otherwise agreed. If delivery does not take place within this time then you are eligible for a full refund. While we may offer refunds or replacements earlier we retain the right to 30 days.
We do not provide a commercial drop shipping service. Any order found to be providing this service for delivery to a third party may have their order and account cancelled.
If any item fails to work or appears to not be working or does not meet the description of sale please contact us.
As the retailer we are responsible for the items we sell and will never pass the responsibility for replacement or repair to the customer or manufacturer. For items less than 12 months old it will be normal practice in the event of failure to replace the item or to give a full refund. Over 12 months old we will consider repair or replacement depending on the individual circumstances. In law it is considered that an item has a working life, depending on what it is and how used. For example a spinning wheel would be expected to have a life of several years. If it fails during this period due to faulty manufacture then you have rights in law for refund or replacement. This does not include wear due to normal usage.
A non returnable deposit of 10% is required at the time of booking. This is detailed on the booking form. If we are able to fill the cancelled place 50% of the deposit will be returned.
The balance is due on completion of the course. In the event of cancellation the person booking will be allowed to transfer the deposit to a booking on an alternative future date. The participant booking a course will not be allowed to transfer their booking to another person.
In the event of us not being able to run the course due to unforeseen circumstances a full refund of the deposit will be made. No additional compensation will be made.
