Having known that beforehand I decided to see if I could find any local yarn shops before I went there. Instead of a yarn shop I found something even better- a woolen mill. The Trefiw woolen mill is located about 9 miles away from Conwy down this windy country road. It is a mill that runs on the mountain stream that flows right through the little village. Unfortunately the mill was not running just yet. It was closed for the winter season and I was about 2 weeks too early.
I did get to visit it and walk around. It had a great little dying garden with plants used to dye the yarn, a nice area to show you how the yarn is processed, and a great little store full of hand woven goodies and nice yarn.
I had a great time and even got a few souvenirs!
