Texas Wool Week

The Homestead by Kimberly Clark

Traditional Arts & North Atlantic Heritage

Texas Wool Week 2027 Theme: Vikings

Set sail on an adventure to the North Atlantic, where art was practical, wool was essential, and survival was an adventure. From fiber to fabric to every day life, the Viking spirit reminds us that creativity and necessity have always walked hand in hand. 


Texas Wool Week has taken on a fresh perspective as we simplify our lives by seeking sustainable ways of living. While it may be a small movement, it is a powerful one. We are about creating, innovating, reconnecting, and regenerating. Less than a hundred years ago, many of us still lived this way—chickens in the backyard, summer vegetables in the garden, nothing wasted. Worn clothes were rewoven into rugs, sweaters unraveled into socks, and fresh cheese made from the morning’s milk. We were careful with what we had because we weren’t certain of what tomorrow might bring.


We invite you to join us in 2027 as we continue this journey together.

About Texas Wool Week

Our Story

Philosophy

Philosophy

Texas Wool Week brings together makers, farmers, and fiber enthusiasts for seven days of creativity, learning, and connection. From soil to sweater, participants share in the beauty of handmade traditions through workshops, farm experiences, and lively gatherings in the heart of the Hill Country.

Philosophy

Philosophy

Philosophy

Sustainability is a hot topic these days as we look at every aspect of the fiber production. First you have soil enhancement from rotational grazing. From there you get a higher quality fleece when you add in higher quality grazing fields, minerals and grains. Quality fiber can be broken up in to three categories: compost, wearable goods and home goods. It's not just about the fiber a mill gets, but the story that goes with that fiber. Our goal is to connect our community from farm to table to wearable good.

Adventures
