    There was a shop on the market slip (lane from High St to Kieran St, down by Maggie Hollands (now The Playwright!), think it's still there, sells knitting & sewing material.

    I thought that was gone. Could be wrong though.

    There is a shop out in purcellsinch that might be a good bet - even if they don't have what you are after i reckon they could point you in the right direction

    Pretty sure the Singer shop on the Butterslip is gone.

    Hickeys (Home Focus) near Woodies and KFC did have wool. Not sure if they have a great selection tho.

    I thought the Singer Shop had moved in to the shop opposite James' Choice on James' Street? Could be wrong.

    The pound shop in Market Cross actually has a decent selection as well and I think the party shop in James's street also has a selection

    Both Aldi and Lidl frequently have wool and yarn, not sure of the number of microns, also there is a very good wool shop in Clonmel by the old barracks.
    I suppose it is the time of the year Wooltide.
