The Campaign For Wool Launches ‘Capsu-Wool’ for Wool Week 2015 – A Small But
Stylish Wool Moment to Experience the Wonder Of Wool for the Compact Interior Space
This October The Campaign for Wool has again worked with interior stylist Arabella McNie to
create Capsu-Wool, an interiors pop-up celebrating the best of wool in interiors for Wool Week
2015.
Open to the public all week, the Capsu-Wool pop-up will showcase an edit of the top interior
styles for the coming season. Fabulous furnishings by designers and brands including Heals,
Margo Selby and Wallace Sewell are on display and a stunning carpet design feature
showcases bold patterns from Crucial Trading, Alternative Flooring, Brintons and Roger Oates.
All this, alongside woollen fabrics and furnishings from the likes of Johnstons of Elgin, Bute
Fabrics, Camira Fabrics and Abraham Moon & Sons, captures the versatility of real wool for
design and decor in the home.
The pop-up hopes to display the beauty and sustainability of wool being used in the home,
harnessing this durable, flame retardant and versatile source to create a capsule of leading
brands and designers working within the wool industry in support of The Campaign for Wool.

About the Campaign for Wool
The Campaign for Wool was launched in 2010 to educate consumers about the benefits of
wool, promote wool-rich products to a national audience and help to support and grow the wool
industry. Run by a coalition of industry groups convened by HRH The Prince of Wales, the
campaign works to engage consumers through exciting fashion, interiors, artisan and design
lead activities centring around Wool Week each year.
