A sheepwalk is the path the sheep follow when grazing or heading to the marketplace with their herder. We like to think of our site as a path to some lovely yarns and international adventures. Why the "woolworks"? We love yarn! Sheep have wool. Why not. Enjoy the site!

If you plan to travel to SCOTLAND, may we recommend....

There are 3 yarn dealers on Mainland Orkney. Two are in Kirkwall and one is on the main street in Stromness. It is difficult to find yarn shops like ours in America. So take the risk and head to the back of these shops. The yarn is usually hidden in baskets or in their original bags on shelves! The main yarn supplier comes from North Ronaldsay. You can find some beautiful finsihed projects as well in the native Viking-Scottish style. Places to stay: Camusbeag & Beahouse Self Catering.
