Springwools - Ireland's Largest Wool Shop

At Springwools, we believe craft has the power to bring people together and make a real difference. That's why our team has signed up for Crafters For Saoirse, a 24-hour craftathon fundraiser supporting Saoirse Domestic Violence Services.

We're taking part as a relay team, and together we'll be putting in over 40 hours of combined crafting to create something very special for Saoirse. We can't reveal what it is just yet. but we think you'll love it when you see it.

Saoirse have been supporting women and children escaping domestic violence for over 20 years, helping more than 500 families every year. They do incredible work and they need our support.
If you'd like to sponsor Team Springwools, every donation goes directly to Saoirse and the families they help.

One Ball, Two Beautiful Creations

Perfect for gifting or personal indulgence, the King Cole Yummy Bouquet is a 600g supersize cake of ultra-soft chenille yarn. Hold it upright and it’s a beautiful floral “bouquet”, lay it flat and it unfolds into a crocheted blanket with a flower border. Every colour needed is included within the yarn cake, and the pattern is tucked inside the band.

We absolutely ADORE this new yarn from King Cole!

A yarn that reflects the beauty of the world around you, inspired by the ethereal glow of iridescent insects, Firefly Aran captures natural luminescence in eight colour-shifting hues. Deep jewel tones form the heart of the palette, each shade chosen to gleam against the yarn’s metallic undertones, as though lit from within.

Let sunlight dance along every stitch, and watch your creations sparkle in the light.

Absolutely blown away by the stunning KNITTED MAP OF IRELAND on display at Carnew Community Care! 🌟 This giant 5×4 m wool masterpiece, handcrafted by the incredibly talented ladies of the Home First knitting group, features iconic landmarks—from Glendalough’s Round Tower and the Guinness Storehouse to the Giants’ Causeway and Blarney Castle—each crafted with boundless creativity and dedication

What makes it even more remarkable? It’s the result of FOUR years of dedicated handiwork, involving 19 local women who met weekly, poured in thousands of hours, and brought this vision to life—despite the challenges of Covid and the loss of a few dear friends along the way.

This isn’t just a map—it’s a labour of love, a triumph of community, and a celebration of Irish creativity. Hats off to Teresa Moran, Betty Kavanagh, Mary Blake, Helan Caroll Kelly, Josie Doyle, Liz Butler, and all the amazing women behind this masterpiece. You’ve made us all proud. 👏❤️
