and a new one:

Broadway
that you must try.
Dreamz circular bamboo needles
with a sharp point.

"I was a little skeptical on the
new Dreamz needles, but decided
to try them as I started a mohair
and silk scarf. Wow!! The sharp
points are wonderful in working
with this fine yarn, and the yarn doesn't slip off the needles.
I can see where these will be
great with all types of yarn! I may just be switching to Dreamz for
all my knitting"

We have 16" and 24" sizes 3-9.
To make room for our Dreamz
needles......All Clover bamboo

Best Social Knitworking!
The Wool Cabin!
This little shop in East Ivy Place was founded by Renee Groves in 1979. After Groves passed away in 2003, the tradition of providing a friendly, knowledgeable and helpful fuzzy spot for local knitters was carried on by her daughters, Alison Barlow and Suzette Cannon. Upon entering the store, you can’t help but squeeze the skeins of yarns in myriad weights, fibers and colors along with an inspired selection of needles, patterns and tools. But more important is the tradition of sharing the craft through classes and events, including free social knitting on Thursdays from noon to 2 p.m.
