Yarn or textile shops

I am wondering if anyone know of good shops that sell hand woven products - and/or yarn for weaving

Also, the village of Chimayo (east of Espanola on the ';High Road'; to Taos) is famous for it%26#39;s weavers and weaving.





Two sites that might be of interest to you in Chimayo.

Also northwest toward Chama is a small weaving cooperative. They use wool from the Churro sheep. Great yarn. Tiera Wools in Tierra Amarilla. www.handweavers.com





You may also want to visit the Santa Fe Farmer%26#39;s Market. Many times I have seen (and purchased) yarn from locals.





Enjoy.
