National Knitting Week 2007, in aid of Ireland’s Simon Communities who house and feed Ireland’s homeless. National Knitting Week Ireland runs from 13-21 October 2007 and we are asking all knitters to knit hats and scarves for the Simon Community volunteers to hand out in winter to Ireland’s homeless. We are organising drop off points throughout Ireland where you can hand in your knitted hats and scarves and you can sign up here to receive regular updates on events, venues and your tally.

They sell a very small amount of eyelash yarn only, some knitting and crochet kits, occasionally knitting/crochet books.

It Must Be Dingle, Main Street, Dingle, Co. Kerry

We are not exactly sure of the name of this shop, but there is a craft shop (crafts by local artisans) on Main Street which sells hand spun and hand dyed wool, basic colors in 100 gram hanks. Very expensive!

The Sweater Shop on Green Street, just off Grey’s Lane, Dingle, Co. Kerry

Has a basket or two of balls of Kerry Wool. It’s mostly natural colors but nice stuff.

Cork Crafts, Paul Street Arcade, Cork City.

This shop sells a small selection of crochet thread and a good selection of tapestry wool, mainly for their needlepoint canvases. Also a good bead selection, latchhook rugs kits, notions and some hooks and needles. They’re mainly a great notions shop for add-ons for knitting and crochet.

An Soiga, Green Street (between Grey’s Lane and Main Street), Dingle, Co Kerry.

This is a clothing store that sells mostly original design knitted sweaters and specialty items, but has a small selection of Tivoli yarn in the back of the shop, including a rack of knitting needles and crochet hooks.
