I’m pretty late to video editing but this week recorded the assembly process of our Seal Cubs. The dry bit anyway. I looked for EU based video apps and tried Splice and Mojo. Here’s 10 mins of cutting and sewing in under 2 in our Dublin shop #irishcraft #wool #dublin #handmade #irishdesign

The 2026 restock has started with our wool felt fish. The fins are cut from felt manufacturer scraps so we’ve changed our filling for these to recycled yarn (reverse milled from industry waste) to boost sustainability a little more! #recycling #wool #irishcraft #visitdublin

They’ve been from the shop only for a year or so as I wanted to see people try them on and how they fit different heads but they’re online now. #irishcraft #irishdesign #wool #naturalwool #beanies #speirgorm

We have our favourite wools that we make our animals with spun into yarns and work with @annarave.bsky.social to knit simple beanies that are all about the natural shades and texture of the wools.

Although they often use our own techniques and methods it’s a chance to think outside the box on aspects that are slightly different to our own work. This one’s not too different to a Beaver we might make, except the colour!

We were recently asked to make a trophy for the Dublin Animation Meet-up (DAM) Audience Award based on their Beaver character. I love bringing other people’s illustrations to life and usually do one or two of these projects each year.

Our robins are made with natural brown Merino around Galway stuffing with a patch of dyed merino attached at hand felting stage. Beaks and feet are cut from taupe coloured sheet wool felt and they’re all stitched together with natural Shetland yarn which also does the eyes.

We’re settled back into a new school term so shop opening hours will be 10 - 2 weekdays (bar the inevitable few sick days!) We’ve been working on our Autumn/Winter pieces over the summer with customer favourite Robins out on the shelves this week. #irishcraft #speirgorm #wool #robins #visitdublin

We’ve been working with 100% Irish Galway Wool for a batch of sheep - it’s normally the just the stuffing as it’s SO hard to work with as an outside layer. A few other favourites that can be all white on the way. #irishwool #irishcraft #visitdublin #wool #sheep

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

I think the word he’s looking for is neglect, they neglect more important things for “top jobs”

It’s Daffodil Day in support of the Irish Cancer Society, plenty of places to donate around Dublin City this morning. Seems extra significant this year with services being cut in the US. Thanks to all the volunteers and best wishes to all in treatment now. #daffodilday #fuckcancer

Think it depends on how different you want them to be and if there are feeds that are niche enough to show different posts. I sometimes think on reflection two accounts might have been better but it’s more because Bluesky has become habitual due to all the news - but that’s a self regulation issue!

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

Great idea, I like the positive approach!

Flock Dublin @flockdublin.bsky.social · 18/03/2025

I don’t get it. Everything they sell can be got elsewhere and, although years ago, my last experience of lots of options or locations to choose from for the same item made it easier to just give up and shop elsewhere

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

Meta should be the easiest and biggest boycott - you don’t go without essential goods, you don’t lose engine efficiency or range, you’re not tied into a contract, you just delete an app. But no, here we are, everyone ignoring the ethics cos they like looking at stupid reels on the toilet.

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
