Yarn heaven! They ONLY stock 100% Shetland yarn on their own label, so not the place to go if you're looking for major commercial yarn lines. However, the selection of Shetland yarns available is wonderful, and none of it can be found anywhere else, since they don't sell through distributors. A must-visit store for yarn tourists.

Staff are friendly, helpful, and very knowledgeable. Our tour of the woolroom was a real treat.
