Great service and lovely squishy yarn
As always I received helpful advice on colour choices. I was choosing for a Shift Cowl and really want to cast on. Came away very satisfied. Thank you!
Excellent, good natured help and information received.
Glorious yarns!
The Walcot Yarns Opus is so amazingly soft and an absolute delight to knit with. My sweater is going to be so beautiful. Thank you!
This was an order of extra wool for a work in progress. I am really happy working with Opus it has a lovely feel. The shop was also very helpful with advice about the change of shade in one particular case.
