Ooo, a friend told me about a local yarn shop and I had to make a quick stop in while I was in Chapel Hill today. Its called Yarn Etc and its right next to Whole Foods and the PTA Thrift Shop.
Not only did they seem like a very nice group of ladies, but there was a nice little selection of roving and needle felting supplies. I had to snatch up an ounce of black roving for some detailing work I'll need to do on some more animals from Laurie Sharp's Wool Pets.
The prices were competitive as well, which was a very pleasant surprise. It makes me wish I'd looked around a bit more before ordering a needle felting kit from Yarn.com (although it did push me over the limit to get the 20% discount -- so I don't feel too badly!) (by the way, just found the cutest blog post from Yarn.com blog).
Yay for finding a local store that caterers to my very specific crafting addiction! (The employees both in Michaels and Jo Ann Fabrics were like "Needle felting? What's that? Is it like knitting?" Booo!)
