I write regarding the letter Crafty thoughts (July 1). One shop Gillian Sowray overlooked is Duttons For Buttons in Coppergate.

This unique shop, with its mediaeval room on the top floor, does not aspire to the craft selections of the other shops. But, to the imaginative and enterprising card maker and crafter, the stock they hold offers many possibilities.

They welcome sewers, knitters and crafters alike and encourage browsers. It is definitely worth adding to the list.
