In October I visited the Haworth Scouring Co in Bradford to see how they process wool purchased from the British Wool board.
I hope you enjoy this little behind the scenes look.

ABOUT ME
I’m 31 years old and I’m a sheep farmer from Ayrshire in South West Scotland, which is why I have such a strong accent! I was born and raised on a sheep farm watching my dad who was the shepherd.
At 18 I went away from farming to work in the city (something I still do) and at 23 (2013) I decided I wanted to do something for some extra money so I went on a sheep shearing course. The hardest thing I’ll ever do was learning to shear sheep. [shudders thinking about it]
I shore whilst on my holidays from work for 2 years and then in 2015 my dad died so I decided to get my own sheep so I could continue working with sheep as it was something I loved doing. From there it escalated quickly from my first 4 sheep in my mum’s garden to now running around 600 breeding ewes.
I shore over 15,000 sheep this season in UK and I also travel to Norway for shearing in March and September. (Covid messed it up this year)
A few years ago I bought myself a sheep pregnancy scanner and have been building up my run since then.
I watched a few farm vlogs on KZfaq and decided I could have a go and now here we are!
Thanks for watching my videos and please subscribe if you want to see more in future.

You know most people look at this and think cool but until you have sat down and tried to do it by hand you don't have any idea how amazing this process is. My wife and I spin our own wool from our Shetland flock and to just clean one Fleece takes a couple of days before you even get to carding and Combining. So by the time we have turned it into a product like a hat or scarf we have weeks of work put in to it and this facility just cuts it down to just a couple of hours it just boggles the mind

Totally agree. I have my bachelor's degree in Fine Arts and if I hadn't majored in Ceramics, my second choice would have been fibers. I remember just carding and washing wool in one of our classes and it was so laborious. But also so rewarding.

I stopped processing most of my own fleeces precisely for this reason. I still process kid mohair and fleeces that are important to me, like rare/endangered breeds, etc. so much labor. However, I’d love to get some hoggett from Cammie and make a nice greasy yarn.

Big thanks to Haworth for allowing you to film all that! As someone who does her scouring in a 40litre bucket in the bathroom, and uses old towels and sunshine to get it dry.... it's amazing to see the machines handling such quantities of wool. After having been warned of the dangers of felting due to the water being too hot or agitating the wool too much, it's surprising to see the wool being thrown and blown around so vigorously. But I like the way it's moved through the washes and rinses, by the bars with fingers going just under the water. Great stuff, Cammy, thank you so much, and please do keep it coming!

It is good to see the wool industry alive and kicking in the UK. Others have remarked on the scale of the enterprise, but it is no surprise to me because I worked for 25 years in the Lancashire cotton industry until its demise. Every mill was organised on a similar scale to what we have seen here - when I first saw it in action, as a school leaver back in the 1950's my mind was blown at the scale of things. We don't have a cotton industry any more and I remember a remark by a workmate, when I was an apprentice and the cotton industry was fighting against cheap imports - he said that without a textile industry Britain would be unable to fight a war in the future. I often thought about that and it applies to the wool industry as well. we only need to think about all the uniforms required by the various government agencies - Army, RAF, Navy, police, firefighters, railways and just about anything else purchased on behalf of the nation. How can it be good for the nation as a whole when all these products have to be purchased abroad, but yet our home industry was allowed to wither on the vine.
