I am a shop that specializes in New England and American yarns.  I use what little purchasing power I have (as a 500-square foot shop) to support and promote the yarn industry here.  But I have an admission to make.  I ordered Noro’s Kureyon from Japan.  Some yarns have no domestic competitors and Kureyon is one, so when we scheduled a class on the Syncopation bag, which looks best with Kureyon, I gave in and ordered it.  Do I feel guilty?  A little.  Can I wait to knit with it?  Absolutely not!  Kureyon is not everyone’s favorite yarn.  It can be rough, it can break (which is annoying), and worst of all, it can sometimes have knots (naughty, naughty).  But the color combinations and changes have won over the hearts of many knitters.  So if you want to check it out, come on in.
