 About Woolfish  ShopWoolfish is a small textile and yarn shop on the edge of the picturesque village of St Abbs. The shop opened in Nov 2006. We have had great fun since then and have met such lovely people. Why Woolfish? Photo taken by Jack Laws  I came across the name when we had divers staying with us and they mentioned the Wolf Fish, a fish that most divers try and see when they come to St Abbs. To my shame I hadn't heard of this fish, I 'Googled' it and low and behold up came St Abbs.When it came to me finding a name, I couldn't get past Wolf Fish, and because of it being synonymous with St Abbs, I just had to go with it, hence, WOOLFISH!! About the Woolfishers My name is Louise, I am the 'BIG FISH', and Trudi, my daughter is the 'WEE FISH'. Trudi is a newcomer to the textile and yarn business, but I(Louise) have been involved with it for many years. We lived in Ireland for many years and while there taught embroidery. We also had a small shop called Ballindarra Crafts and used that as a base to make small embroidered sheep pictures for other shops , which then went to the States, Germany, France,etc. When we moved back home, I taught Crewel Work at the community centre for a while before opening up the shop. I teach others how to make sheep pictures  Address Woolfish St Abbs Berwickshire TD14 5QF Scotland Hours: Summer Opening Times Sun - Wed 1pm - 5pm Thurs - Sat 10am - 5pm Winter Opening Times Thurs - Sat 10am - 5pm Sun 1pm - 5pm
