Treacle Wool Shop is owned by Kym and Claire, Morpeth Mumpreneurs with a passion for knitting. The shop, which opened in October 2009, is situated in a gorgeous location, right next to the River Wansbeck in the pretty market town of Morpeth in Northumberland. The shop itself is in a characterful old building next door to The Chantry (built around 1296!) which houses the Tourist Office and Craft Centre.

We pride ourselves on excellent customer service and strive to be community-led and regularly run events and projects to include our local knitters. We stock something for all budgets from baby 4 ply to 100% alpaca, and offer a wide choice to inspire your knitting projects! We have a wide range of gift items, produced by local crafters ranging from knitting bags to corsages.

We run a monthly Knit2gether, support local knitting groups such as Morpeth Library, provide a lay by service, commission bespoke knits and so much more.

We also love a challenge - if you are having trouble sourcing something, give us a call and we will try to help!
