Large, lovely department store on Great Marlborough Street, just down from Oxford Circus. (Frontage used to be on Regent Street, but is now closed — is this permanent or just for refurbishment?) Sells Rowan yarns and a selection of fabrics, along with loads of other homewares. They specialise in liberty print cotton. Their lace and braid section is well worth a look. Also do stranded cotton and many tapestry kits.

The Rowanettes knitting group meets here.

As with John Lewis, some people think Liberty is not what it once was.

Last visited by Kake and doop in late 2006. Opening times taken from the Liberty website, April 2007.
