I have searched for the same thing before with little success. Depending on
your needs, you may find this site helpful: http://www.agta.org

Having visited Kernowcarft in Cornwall, UK.,I can thoroughly recommend them to
anyone. Dealing mainly with mail-order, they also really help if you call
personally.
They have a website: www.kernowcraft.com. They ship internationally too!
