There’s something special about spinning your own yarn and using it to make your own clothing or items that are useful, or simply for fun. Each make is a journey, a process, and each holds a story - a yarn of creativity.
Cat is on holiday. The online shop is closed for the duration.
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

How the story began…
The story of Cat & Sparrow began when I was looking for my first spinning wheel. I answered an ad on Ebay and begged the seller to let me pick up the wheel that very same day. She happily obliged and that’s how I met Rachael (Sparrow). We hit it off like house on fire, one thing led to another and the rest, as they say, it’s history.
Cat & Sparrow debuted at the Bendigo Sheep & Wool Show in 2013 with half a table of display and we grew from there.
Unfortunately soon after we started Cat & Sparrow Rachael had to return to England but neither of us wanted to give up what we started, so we became Cat & Sparrow Australia and Cat & Sparrow UK.
This photo was taken at Woollinn Dublin in 2019. I was working in the U.K. between 2018-2019 and while I was there I went to as many fibre/wool festivals as I could with Rachael and it was just like the old times! ❤️
“I have never met a fibre artist who could get such amazing reds! And the wool itself… so soft and luscious. Get it while you can :D”
"I’m absolutely itching to start spinning this beautiful fibre. The purple tones are so gorgeous. “
