Not sure where I live. I heard local news people complaining "now there is no place to get yarn anymore".
I do know of a place like you described but that's 3 hrs drive + 2 trains. Sigh. Not worth the effort for my hack job. Guess it's online disaster here we go.
Ugh. Sorry to hear that. I'm lucky enough to live near several big cities so I have a lot of options.
For what it's worth, I've ordered fabric from spoonflower and it's been great so far. I also get a lot of scrap/unique fabrics from small Etsy sellers, and 99 times out of 100 it's perfect. Every once in a while the fabric has clearly been in a smokers house for a long time or terribly taken care of, but generally people do a great job of picking fabrics that go together and they package them nicely. Full disclosure my spoonflower purchases are all through their Etsy store because I don't wanna make a whole new account for their site, but I imagine it's the same experience regardless.
Oh good to know never even heard of it as an option.
