Does anyone have a favorite yarn shop in Rome and / or Florence they would like to recommend? A shop that sells hand spun / dyed would be especially nice. Thank you!

We were in Rome in April and my Mom and Aunt found a knitting store. We stopped by there a few times in the week that we were there. I don't know if they had hand spun or dyed yarn or the name but it was along the Via die Baullari at the Corso Vittorio Emanuele II. It was a couple of store fronts away from Il Fornaio (I think that was the name of the store, there was a great big Mortadella on display daily that they would slice for people and then make sandwiches from it inside)

Thank you, jscarbary, I'll find it! "...a great big Mortadella..." yum!

jscarbary, thanks to you, and that mortadella, I found the yarn shop. For such a small shop, they pack a lot in!

I missed this thread the first time around. There is a small yarn shop on tiny Vicolo della Torretta between Via del Leone and Via della Torretta. This is near/between Largo Fontanella Borghese and Piazza San Lorenzo in Lucina.
