The Open Guide to London: the free London guide - Differences between Version 5 and Version 4 of John Lewis, Oxford Street

Contents are identical

The John Lewis chain of department stores grew from a haberdashery opened in Oxford Street by the 28-year-old John Lewis, in 1864. More history on the John Lewis website.

The Oxford Street branch of John Lewis still has a fairly decent haberdashery, with a selection of yarns - Debbie Bliss, Noro, Jaeger, Rowan, Wendy, etc - plus crochet hooks, knitting needles and miscellaneous accessories such as feathers, ribbons, elastic and so on. A good range of buttons too. Many folders of knitting patterns but only a few crochet patterns, mostly in books. The prices are reasonable.
