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 />
