I tend to agree still that `shop=wool` isn't quite the right tag. I was
looking into this a bit more and there are NO uses of shop=wool in the
entire United States <https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1pUW>, with the
exception of one I added this morning. Though there are several with
tags like `knit|yarn`, none of which (tags) are documented.
I think it's fair to say that outside of Britain and parts of Europe,
this is just starting to be mapped. Maybe because the documentation
didn't mention yarn? Maybe because `shop=wool` isn't an option in ID
yet? Maybe because it's hard to knit and digitize maps at the same time??
I think I'll leave the proposal for `shop=yarn` in place, updating it to
reflect the current usage of `shop=wool` and we can vote on whether to
prefer one tag over the other. If it gets voted down at least we'll have
established some consensus around `shop=wool` and can move forward with
that.

The Polish(?) wiki page
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Pl:Tag:shop%3Dwool> for
shop=wool does seem to mention yarn and knitting directly.
Yes, https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Pl:Tag:shop%3Dwool is a
Polish page
(PL/Pl being commons shortcut for Poland/Polish).
"artykuły dziewiarskie" mentioned there seems to mean "knitting materials"
Anyway, if there is consensus that `shop=wool` is an accepted tag
for a store selling /yarn/,
(...)
* shop=wool is a shop that sells yarn, even if there is no literal
wool on premises
That seems really ugly and I would not support this (but I am not an
expert at
all on this topic).
