Fodor's Expert Review Destination Art

If you're not an outdoorsy sort of person the Queenstown area could be a little overwhelming. But while he's away playing golf, duck into this little shop in central Arrowtown. It's the one with skeins of colored merino wool, bags of soft possum fur and felting materials, and soft, flowing fabrics outside. Inside is a treasure trove of fabric and wool art materials—enough to keep you going for days. Lessons on various craft forms are available so check with the host when you're there.
