The fiber Artist Madhouse
WE ARE OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK FOR YOUR FIBER Madness!
Welcome to Madison Wool (located in Madison, CT- sorry Wisconsin!) We are a fiber lover’s paradise, with fine yarns for hand knitting plus one of a kind, handspun art yarns that you cannot find anywhere else. We sell spinning wheels and weaving looms, have lessons in knitting, crochet, spinning, felting, dyeing, and weaving, and have a small but mighty creative space for classes. We have loose fibers and roving for sale, and a drum carder to blend it for use as well. We strive to be a fiber arts education center, as well as hosting workshops in other relaxing pursuits (zentangle, yoga).
We are MAD about fiber, and it shows! From the bits of sparkle and fluff on our clothes, to the many projects being worked on, we have a passion for all fiber arts. Spinning is our first love, with knitting a close second. We want you to be MAD too. As they say “A fiber addiction is cheaper than therapy” and it’s true - plus you get something useful out of it in the end! We are here and ready to talk fiber!
