Yeh, it's been years since Joann's has had any decent wool. They used to carry Pendleton yardage and nice heavy wool coat fabric, but now most of what they carry is bolts and bolts and bolts of tacky pile print and tons of junky crafts stuff. Yecchhh...

There's a store near Washington, DC call G Street Fabrics, and they have truly fab wool in all kinds of weights from men's suits to pea coat weight, including some tartan. But, it's at _least_ as expensive as Scottish tartan. Not much mass market, I guess...

Cheers,
