A story that begins in the family
It was my grandmother, a passionate knitter and crocheter, who passed on to me the love of yarn and needles when I was a child. Since that day, knitting has never left me. Each stitch, each project is a memory, an emotion. Opening Les Pelotes de Pénélope was a way to extend this story and share it.
From Paris to Paimpol, a return to the roots
After a few years spent in Paris, I felt the need to return to Brittany, my heartland. It is in Paimpol, on Place Gambetta, that I chose to put down my balls of wool and welcome those who share my passion. Here, you will find quality wool, yarns with varied textures, but also a warm place where knitting is lived and passed on.
Much more than a shop
At Pelotes de Pénélope , you will find not only a wide selection of wools and yarns – virgin, fine, fancy, recycled… – but also all the materials and accessories you need for your projects. Catalogs and books are also available to inspire you, whether you want to knit baby clothes, children’s fashion, or adult fashion.
Moments of sharing
Because knitting creates connections, I regularly organize creative workshops (macrame, punch needle, etc.) and knitting-tea gatherings . These are friendly moments, open to all, to learn, exchange and relax around a shared passion.
An invitation to creativity
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced knitter, my shop is a place where everyone can find inspiration, good advice, and the ideal materials for their projects. At Les Pelotes de Pénélope , it's less about following a trend than cultivating an authentic passion, focused on quality and the pleasure of creating.
