Do you need large skeins of double knit (dk) acrylic yarn for blankets? Are you looking for more natural fibers to work with? Is there a specific yarn that you need in bulk, but want to purchase it locally? Then Charming Wool might be the solution that youre looking for.I reached out to them looking for a specific yarn that was pretty much out of stock at my original shop of purchase. The owner answered my email directly - yes, the email information was accurate and very convenient. I was able to reserve the yarn that I needed, so that when I arrived, all I had to do was pay, pick-up, and get back to stitching. However, I was amazed at the variety of double knit, chunky, acrylic, cotton, bamboo...YARN that was everywhere! There were finished works for sale, as well as tools to inspire you to create to you hearts desire!And after that initial visit, I still go there to purchase yarn. Not all dks are created equal, but I have yet to find yarn at this store that wasnt useful or a joy to work with. Ill put yarn and project pics for your enjoyment.Seriously, check these ladies out. Buy local and enjoy the friendly staff. Itll definitely be worth the trip.All yarns pictured below are Kismet yarns. All yarns were purchased in-store. All yarns and projects are machine-washable.Projects and colors: Purple splash in a corner to corner throw, Ice cream in a continuous granny square, and Crimson, Vanilla, and Graphite in a 12-point star.
