We've just received the new James Brett Shhh DK! With 20% wool, it comes in 10 lovely shades that almost look hand-dyed! As with all Brett's yarns, the quality and price are hard to beat!

The whole colour range of Hayfield Bonus (DK, Aran, Chunky and Super Chunky) have changed! While we're sad to see some of the old popular shades go, there are some really exciting new ones!

We have 40 fantastic shades of the cotton yarn Stories DK! It looks great on the shelves and comes with over 20 knit and crochet patterns. We're excited to see some very colourful projects being made!

The huge, warm and soft balls of Adventure Super Chunky is already a huge hit! With the large black and white jumper in the window and looking fabulous on our shelves, it's been one of our biggest sellers. Also new in, is the classy 20% Alpaca Saltaire Aran and the 50% Merino Haworth Tweed DK. Both are very good quality yarns at an affordable price.

Cornwall’s leading Wool & Needlecraft shop has been selling yarn for over fourty years. Offering exciting new yarns together with traditional classics in a myriad of colours to suit all tastes, The Wool Basket also provides all the accessories and haberdashery that you will require.

Located on the main street in sunny Falmouth, Cornwall, Jill, Charles and Jon Pay have gained many years of experience of successful trading. Due to requests from our visiting customers, many of whom have shown dismay at the lack of local wool shops in their areas, we have finally brought our shop online. Here, you will find the latest yarns at competitive prices and the same level of customer service that has made us the leading stockist of the major brands throughout the South West.
