Beautiful wooly store

I am a rug maker, therefore, I was looking for wool that is durable and not delicate. Les laines Biscotte carry wool by Briggs and little, a Canadian wool mill from New Brunswick. Good variety of colours in the tuffy type yarn. The staff were really helpful. For an afternoon visit there were many customers coming in and purchasing their wool. I hope they will carry more of the other types of B&G wool as they are very reasonably priced. Great store!
