 Some history on Appleton’s Yarns from their website:

For the last 180 years, the family firm of Appleton Bros has been producing fine quality tapestry and crewel wool. Based until early 2013 in Chiswick, London, near the river Thames, Appletons has moved more recently to the village of Long Crendon in Buckinghamshire, near the historic market town of Thame.  Although the firm is no longer family owned, the essence of the company remains the same, with the quality of the wool and personal attention to detail being of paramount importance.

    I purchased the Appletons 2ply tapestry wool, to fill in the areas of petite point and tent stitch.

  20. Bronwyn Kanahs (verified owner) –

    This is the most inexpensive place I have found for Appletons wool, which I always use. I moved into a different “genre” of stitching and find it very soothing.

  21. Zuzanna (verified owner) –

    Only brand of wool that I use for my wool embroidery projects. Pieces still look amazing after years of display on the wall.

  22. Shannon Joyce (verified owner) –
