Prickly Thistle

The kilt is absolutely stunning! First and foremost, the quality of both these items is really high. I've visited the mill and can attest to the cratmanship. They are also both beautiful. I bought a green kilt and sweater-vest from Noost. They go beautifully together but also work very well separately. I love both pieces very much, and the story behind them makes it all the better!

Friendly welcome in to a relaxed shop with beautiful, high-quality garments and lots of information on how they are made and about interesting local events/workshops etc

I am so excited to get weaving with my cones of yarn! They made the perfect souvenir

I’m bringing home a Inverness tartan scarf for a friend and a noost for my daughter-

Staff were lovely when my friend and I were trying on jeans. Very helpful, we were there for ages. So good to find affordable Levi’s locally and be able to try them on. And the perfect length for my extra long legs.

Fab fab quality & my first purchase!! Love the tartan

I'm so glad we stopped in. I forget the name of wonderful woman working that day but she was so very helpful and incredibly pleasant!! Top notch person! We had a great chat and bought three scarves :-)

Excellent quality! I've already rec'd compliments. And I always love conversations in the store!

An iconic shopping experience! Everything from the store's mission to the clothing is one of a kind unique and targeted at such a specific audience. The marketing works, I knew it was my kind of shop. Even better, my experience with the salesperson was amazing. She was kind, fun, and had the best suggestions. It was a truly enjoyable experience

Fabulous talk acknowledging the amazing women through Scottish history who were misrepresented, in.most cases, by males. A righting of the wrongs of the past, thank you 🧡

I only bought a tote bag which was lovely. But amazing service and interesting passionate women that run the shop with many fascinating stories too tell! A must visit if you’re in Inverness.

I bought the cropped Shetland wool ‘tank top’ in red. I love it. I’m in my sixties and I think this top has a trendy edge. It was expensive which I justified because it is Scottish wool and Scottish made.

Thank you for providing a unique present: a Climate Stripes blanket for a very special couple who will absolutely appreciate the ethos, quality and such a relevant piece of Highland Tartan - thank you Prickly Thistle an

Very cool store with very nice yarn colors

Sales clerk was very helpful.
