Jerusalem Knitting & Craft

Where do you buy your yarn?

Filed under: Shopping

In conjunction with Yael’s request, I’m putting up a request for specific information about yarn/knitting supply shops. There are some places in town which are “full service”, and others where you can get a few balls of acrylic and a couple of crochet hooks.

Where do you do your shopping? Please include as much information as possible, and we will compile it into a web page, or list. Also, this includes mail order and internet sites. We can split it up by Israeli based and internationally based.

One website in Hebrew that I know of is: SanRafa I don’t know if they have a store, but I saw an ad in the paper. If anyone has had any dealings with them, let me know.

Another store note…did anyone notice that the yarn shop that used to be below Zol Mehadrin (next to the Central Bus Station) has moved upstairs? (Where the post office used to be.) Has anyone checked that place out yet?

Poll

Filed under: Polls & Queries

I was thinking it might be nice to do a mitzvah project…maybe caps for cancer patients, or preemie stuff. I’m sure there are a million other possibilities.

Here is a poll to see what you all think.

Yes, definitely
Yes, but I might not be able to participate
Maybe
Not now, but maybe in the future
No, I have enough of my own projects to do
