I started Luna Wolf back in 2008 when I was at university. I had always hated using disposable pads, but didn&#8217;t realise there was any alternative.\u00a0 When I heard about cloth menstrual pads, my mind was blown &#8211; why had nobody told me this was a thing?! I quickly bought two cloth pads to try and was hooked.\u00a0 There weren&#8217;t many cloth pad sellers in the UK back then, and I was on a tight student budget, so I decided to learn to make my own.\u00a0 I had a few orders from friends and family, which inspired me to start my own online shop &#8211; and so Luna Wolf was born.<\/p>\n<p>I had a wonderful few years making and selling cloth pads, and gradually added other items to my store including the pattern\/tutorial set, menstrual cups, wet bags, fabric, etc.\u00a0 I met some lovely people and learnt a lot about running a business.<\/p>\n<p>In 2012\/13 I stopped making cloth menstrual pads in order to pursue a career as a medical secretary, and I am now proud to work for the NHS. I live in Shropshire with my partner and our two lurcher dogs. When I&#8217;m not at work I usually have knitting needles in my hands and a cup of tea on the go. I also love to play the piano. I&#8217;m still a dedicated cloth pad user, and am very happy to see reusable menstrual products becoming more and more accepted.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for stopping by!\u00a0 I hope you enjoy the patterns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello &#8211; it&#8217;s lovely to meet you!
