The 50/50 yarn you bought in the last store are 2 types of sheep breeds. So it’s 100% wool but real yarn fanatics tend to have sheep breed preferences since the wool all has different properties😂 Anyway this was so cute!!

The Eat Sleep Knit store you went to is actually the warehouse( nice I know) those are the yarns that they have in their website as well. I go there all the time. Love that place. The lavender is used to keep with your yarns to keep bugs away. It works! I’ve lived here over 10 years and you’re telling me about stores I’ve never heard of. Wow! Thank you!

Independent yarn shops are so fun but mostly out of my budget lol. Last time I went to Turkey on holiday though, i went looking for yarn shops because so much of the stuff I see at home is made in Turkey. And I got like 11ish skeins/balls for about £25!

I think the UK has a better homegrown supply of wool than the US -- even though most of the UK's best wool is sold abroad for various textile manufacturers, surely some of it must be available locally, too. The US imports most of its wool with all the extra costs that come with that.

Don’t know if this is helpful, but that Emma’s Yarn Mo’Slub (the yarn you really liked from the first store) is a pair of two skeins sold together. It’s a 50g skein of mohair & a 100g of 90/10 wool. That being said, i get it, it’s still over budget. The first time I heard of this line & saw the price I was like…. Mmmmmm…… & it wasn’t until I looked into it & was like two skeins…. Got it!

@kellebelle7 ай бұрын
Great yarn shops and some really nice skeins you chose! The Briggs & Little yarn is a great find; it's a long-standing mill here in Canada and the yarns do start out rough and a bit scratchy, but they're great workhorse yarns. The more you wear them and wash them--using a good wool wash like Soak or Eucalan--they get softer and as long as you keep moths away, you'll have the item(s) almost forever.

Wow and I thought wool is expensive in the UK and I am talking about £12 - 10 for one ball of wool. But the wool you were buying must have been double that for one ball of wool!! Loved this video though and wish there were more wool shops like this in the UK. Most wool shops in the UK are tiny and hard to find down cobbled back streets, which is aesthetically pleasing but not big enough.
