The wool shops and draperies that once graced every<br />
town, city and suburb have almost become extinct, but<br />
visit Enhance 20<strong>07</strong> Ltd in Oamaru and you may be filled<br />
with nostalgia!<br />
It is an Aladdin’s Cave of wonderful wools, yarns,<br />
patterns, needles, sewing threads, buttons, bows,<br />
accessories and people who know their stock and their<br />
stuff. Presided over by owner Val Hill who has had a<br />
lifetime career in wool and crafts, Enhance has been in<br />
business for over a decade.<br />
“We try to have a broad range of wool from 2ply to<br />
chunky as well as a mix of lovely yarns like silk, possum,<br />
Tencel, cotton and alpaca” says Val. Whenever possible<br />
she sources New Zealand wools, but the yarns come<br />
from all over the world including UK, Peru, Australia,<br />
China, Italy and Turkey.<br />
Staff at Enhance have seen an increasing interest in<br />
crafts especially among young Mums with toddlers and<br />
babies and Enhance offers a huge selection of patterns<br />
in-stores. Whether you are a beginner looking for a first<br />
project or an experienced knitter looking for a challenge,<br />
Enhance can inspire you with ideas, techniques and<br />
encouragement.<br />
In addition to the superior selection of knitting products,<br />
you will also find embroidery fabrics and threads<br />
haberdashery items for superb finishing of your work and<br />
gift ideas such as costume jewellery.<br />
As well as serving the customers of North Otago, clients<br />
contact Enhance from as far away as Auckland and<br />
Bluff, while others browse and buy whenever they visit<br />
Oamaru. So why not do the same and visit enhance 20<strong>07</strong><br />
Ltd next time you’re in the region? You will find a wealth<br />
of product selection, with genuine customer service<br />
and the pleasure of a gentle and rewarding shopping<br />
experience. Enhance is open Monday to Friday 9 am-<br />
