The Craft and Sewing Basket

At The Craft & Sewing Basket in Sligo, we’re proud to offer one of Ireland’s largest and most diverse collections of fabric, yarn, and craft supplies. Our shelves are filled with colour, texture, and inspiration — from craft and quilting cottons to dressmaking fabrics, upholstery materials, and a fully stocked haberdashery.

Alongside our extensive fabric range, we carry a vibrant selection of yarn in every weight, fibre, and colour. Whether you knit, crochet, weave, or craft for comfort, creativity, or community, you’ll find quality yarns, trusted brands, and all the tools you need for your next project.

With over 80 years of combined experience in textiles, yarn, sewing, and crafts, our team brings genuine expertise to every customer. We have a qualified dressmaker ready to help with all your garment‑making questions, and a talented sewist with a passion for patchwork, quilting, and clever sewing shortcuts. We also support makers across crochet, knitting, embroidery, felting, millinery, and general crafting, offering friendly guidance and practical advice whenever you need it.

Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced maker, you can trust us to help you choose the right materials, solve tricky problems, and bring every creative idea to life.
