About Us

The Beehive Wool Shop is located on the traditional unceded territory
of the  lək̓ʷəŋən People, known today as the Esquimalt and Songhees Nations. 
Visit our store in beautiful Victoria, B.C., just steps away from Canada’s oldest
Chinatown and Old Town Victoria. Beehive Wool Shop is a welcoming space for
knitters and fibre artists of all skill levels.

We have an ever-growing and -changing collection of knitted and crocheted
samples—from local and international designers—to inspire your next project.
Importantly, we are very proud of our curated selection of commercial and hand-
dyed yarns in a wide variety of gauges and fibres from bulky cotton to lace-
weight alpaca. Our staff is always ready to help with yarn substitutions for all
kinds of projects.

Beehive is proudly family-owned and -operated (see our shop history page for
more details), and we strive always to provide friendly service to everyone from
first-time visitors to familiar faces. Valerie Huggett, the shop owner, and her
knowledgeable staff are happy to help you choose the right materials and
notions, to explain new techniques in our project help sessions, or to advise you
as you browse and admire all the magical colours and textures our shop has to
offer.

We look forward to seeing you!
