Beijing Wansha Yarn Shop
A quick Google search led me to blogs (here, here and here) that all recommended Wansha. As I was staying in the Wangfujing area before and had walked past this yarn shop, I didn’t think much of it and presumed that such shops were aplenty in China, I was wrong.
Directions
Take the subway on line 5 to Dengshikou station, exit A. Turn left and keep walking till you see Mona Lisa bridal shop, turn left again and Wansha is a couple of stores on your left. Takes about 5 minutes from the station.

I bought 2 skeins of ‘towel yarn’ which costs 42RMB, cheap! I love how quickly I could complete a scarf with bulky yarn and bigger needles. Saw another customer buying some size 8 wooden needles which only cost 3RMB but I thought they were of really poor quality and they had to look for straight needles from the batch.
I’m using handmade hardwood needles that I bought from Pertineer on Etsy. A pity she’s not selling them anymore.
