Welcome to a new weekly series whilst the Game of Wool is on television. Let's travel around the UK and introduce you to some Local Yarn Shops. Let's get to meet their owner and see what yarns and haberdashery they offer and other things like classes, workshops, patterns, online and more. We'll find out where they are when they are open.

To kick us of we meet Gareth of Manchester Wool & Yarn.

If you've been inspired by Game of Wool and want to learn to knit or crochet, see if there is a Local Yarn Shop near you. Hopefully from these videos you can see what these yarn shops can offer so go and support local! They have such a wealth of knowledge and experience to offer!
