Our
staff have had many years experience of working with Rowan
yarns. Rowan designs never date but sometimes the colours
and qualities that were once the original designs, have to
be substituted; we can advise on the nearest shades.

the entire Rowan handknitting range. Please see our
Rowan stock list. |
