Loopine Wool Co is one of the few wool shops in Auckland who carries and supports indy dyed yarns and accessories. As a pattern designer for many years I know the difficulties of making fibre arts your main living, and every successful indy dyer, spinner, and pattern designer who makes it in the big bad world is a big win for all of us.
 

In many ways a sense of community is what knitting is all about, and when a fibre arts community has a central hub to gather and share ideas and projects with one another, that’s when ideas, frienships, collaborations and wonderful new creations can emerge. I feel a yarn store should not only be a place to buy your wool, but also a place where you can practice and enjoy this gentle art.
