About the Dorset Team

Welcome to the Dorset Team

The Dorset Team is a community of makers, artists, and small creative businesses from across Dorset. We started as the Etsy Team for the area, created to support and connect local Etsy sellers – but have since grown into a much wider creative network. Today, we welcome all Dorset-based creatives, whether you sell online, at events, or are just getting started.

We’re all about celebrating handmade, independent business, and community.

The Dorset Team is run by Rachel, a knitwear designer with a passion for handmade. Rachel runs her own knitwear brand, The Dorothy Days with her husband Jamie who you will often see at events or is busy working behind the scenes!
