The Outback Yarns store can be found hidden at the back of the Galloway Gem Shop and Craft Centre. It appeared one afternoon after a cosmic collision between two massive flocks of sheep. The aftermath was an extensive range of innovative yarns and patterns. As if keeping this under control wasn't already taxing, we also have insurmountable supplies of Arts and Craft accessories AND gemstones. And even when the shop is closed we are always open!
