Quite the haul from Poughkeepsie but I have to say it was well worth it. Be sure to use your GPS because you're going into the woods and down a gravel road. But when you see the wood carved Countrywool sign, you know you're doing okay! The store was so homey and pleasant and I have to say the owner was probably one of the most friendly people I have ever met. Not only did she take the time to talk me through any questions I had, she also entertained my 30 year old boyfriend by showing him how a yarn swift works. Come on...that's adorable and you know it.
She has amazing kits and lots of fairisle patterns and designs, so definitely check this place out if you're looking for a cozy, warm knitting store with the items to match. read more
