The 2009 calendar from the French based Atelier a leading French member of the European Wool Group
Each month there is a picture of a step in the processing of wool. Starting with three modern shepherds watching their flock, and continuing through shearing, washing, carding, combing and spinning.
Then for the second half of the year you will be able feast you eyes on the uses to which we put wool. Knitting, weaving, felting, mattresses, dyeing and art.
Each month is accompanied by relevant text quoted from people working with wool from all of Europe, such as Dominique Cardon from France and Peter Teal from England. The text is written in the language of the person who said it, although the majority of the text is in French
The calendar also marks the dates of the major wool fests in Europe in 2009... Wonderwool Wales is on the 25th and 26th April in 2009 folks!
