When looking in the city for some crochet materials, I stumbled across this little shop.

I gladly bought two 50g skeins of two of the beautiful color options and a wooden crochet hook. When I run out of yarn while still in Galway I know where to go back to!

A shop that values the tradition and roots of Irish clothing and textiles. We searched high and low…read morefor a genuine shop with a good selection. The marketing at other chain stores is much better- but the quality at this store is second to none. The store is less than interesting when you walk in, but once you look at the quality and craftsmanship of the sweaters, you quickly realize how genuinely amazing. These sweaters are better than any I've found in years of hunting. The labels state which craftsman knit the sweater and Anne (the owner) will gladly recount stories of each family and knitter. Anne values the history and integrity of each piece and this was of the utmost importance to me. She was willing to have custom pieces made to order as well, which might be valuable to some. I truly think this spot is the best in Ireland.

As ever, Top Shop generally meets - and often instigates - the demands of a greedily consumerist…read morehigh street. Everything you see in here is exactly what everyone is wearing, mostly because they all got it from Top Shop - this makes it equally valuable as a bank of idea that you can take to Dunnes or Penny's and improve upon with some originality for half the price. Beware of Galway stores, stock is old and most of this stuff was being worn out in Dublin about two months ago.

Tulip is the most gorgeous, relatively new ladies boutique to open in Galway. It is tucked away in…read moreWoodquay, just a stones throw behind Eyers Square Galway. A lovely small, unique and quirky shop with a very personal service. Although it is small, it is packed with the most gorgeous unusual Italian quality clothes at really good prices. I bought a lovely jazzy brightly coloured top that goes so well with a number of skirts and trousers etc that I already had in my wardrobe, also a pair of black cropped light weight trousers trimmed at the pockets and leg ends, plus the a pair of the best fitting jeans I have ever owned! - all Italian designer makes, fabulous quality and very reasonably priced. So for something different for the summer season that suddenly seems to have arrived, pop into Tulip in Woodquay - you cant miss it as the outside of the shop is festooned with arty tulips - I would highly recommend it.

You'll find various forms of wool, blends, cashmere... make sure to ask an employee for more information. I ended up purchasing real Irish wool scarves (slightly itchy), softest wool scarf, and a wool sheep toy. The items smelled like a farm lol, but the best way to discard the smell was to air them out.
