About Us!

Margie Robinson originally founded her first shop in Oregon, USA, in 1992. 

Named Molehill Farm for the tiny acre of land attached to it; she began by teaching spinning with the wool from her newly acquired sheep.

The shop eventually expanded to include weaving and knitting classes as well as all the fun supplies and accessories associated with these crafts.

Springhill Farm
The Shop at Moondance Wools Today that shop belongs to good friends in Oregon; as Margie and her two sons relocated to Scotland in 1996, following her re-marriage to Johnny Robinson, a dedicated shepherd and sheepdog handler.

In December 2000 Margie opened her newest venture, Moondance Wools on their farm just outside the village of Coldingham in the Scottish Borders. 

Two months later the warnings were out for Foot & Mouth Disease and so like all of their neighbours they decided for safety's sake to close all traffic to the farm.

It was not until December 2001 that they were able to re-open the farm and happily things have been growing ever since.

Like her former business, Moondance Wools then became a full-service teaching centre.
Building around the sense of community with other artists and crafters who wanted to meet and share their ideas and skills in a friendly and soothing environment.

A large part of Margie's philosophy is that the inner creative process involved in these ancient and historic crafts is very therapeutic in today's modern world.
However, the modern pace can push us into the frantic zone and we can all benefit from sitting still and slowing down to explore our creative side, including Margie!

Today, through Moondance Wools Margie concentrates on her own designs, patterns and creative work but still supplies spinning, weaving and knitting equipment, fleeces and yarns often from her own small flock of rare breed sheep.
