Our Christmas cards use scraps and offcuts of wool felt, stuck with eco glue over a print of a tree trunk drawing on recycled card and come with a recycled envelope packed in clear cornstarch cellophane. Pick out a selection Instore! #irishcraft #woolfelt #christmascards #visitdublin #speirgorm

Puffins were a special request by @cleoltd.bsky.social (though we try to keep a few at our shop). For years I thought there was too many details for puffins to work - all the colours in the beak, the. Icy markings, the shape - it this is how we’ve simplified it for our range #puffin #speirgorm

I’ve been in Kildare at my father in law’s funeral and met his uncle who is 93 and told me he owned Smithfield Motor Company which was situated on the same road as my shop, Benburb St. I found these photos and it seems to be opposite current Fidelity bar, where Bargaintown is now. #speirgorm #dublin

One of our rarer coloured wool creatures, usually found hiding at the back of the shop as they’re one of the more time consuming pieces. Just finished 5 of them, which probably record stock levels. #wool #irishcraft #fox #speirgorm #independentstore

A lot of people discover our store for the first time over St Patrick’s Weekend, here’s some of the other non felt animals products by other people and natural crafting wools we have for your own projects. Looking forward to a buzzing Dublin! #wool #irishcraft #speirgorm #knitting #stpatricksday

Flock Dublin St Patrick’s Day is coming up, it’s been a full weekend festival last few years, based at Collin’s Square in the museum on our road. We usually see an influx of tourists, particularly Americans - I wonder what to expect this year, are Americans travelling to Europe? #stpatricks #speirgorm #tourism

This is natural grey Gotland wool, it’s dark and coarse with a bit of a sheen and it’s quick to form a stiff felt. These sheep bodies are made with Gotland on the outside and Galway inside and finished with white Romney parts. Handmade at our Dublin City shop #wool #irishcrafts #speirgorm

A few years ago we made Puffling models for promotion of @gerrydalyart.bsky.social and @erikamcgann.bsky.social which go in bookshop windows and to school readings. My boys love the books and the third book in the series is published today as Gaeilge With @theobrienpress.bsky.social #speirgorm

We end up with a lot of small offcuts and often have to sort them - working out what finishing features we have helps us decide what body parts to start. The little white triangles will become bunny tails for a springtime special #wool #irishcraft #speirgorm #craftsky

9 years ago I posted a prototype of this stork to announce I’d be shut for a few weeks after the birth of our first son - rather than stick his photo on the internet. We do the production version as ‘made to order’ only. Some things are too much work to keep in stock. #wool #irishcraft #speirgorm
Flock Dublin I like to call Saturdays our reliable day but we’ll be closed today as my 3 week lurgy turned into a teeny bit of pneumonia. Watch yourselves out there, it’s a bad dose! #wool #irishcraft #speirgorm #sickday

Missed international polar day yesterday, was just reminded on here. Our animals use repeated 3D shapes to create a coherent family aesthetic. Here’s how the Sperm Whale shape is reversed to be a polar bear. #wool #irishcraft #speirgorm #polarbear
