Alex Swan browses through clothing Thursday morning at Wool & Flax on Thompson Bridge Road as 17-month-old Carson Cooley plays with toys. Boutique owner Leslie Cooley realizes how hard it is for moms to shop with their babies, so a box of toys is provided to keep the youngsters occupied while waiting.
Joining a list of new, women’s clothing boutiques in Gainesville is Wool and Flax, offering something a little different from the others. Owner Leslie Cooley opened the store Sept. 29, carrying a limited stock of somewhat higher-end clothing lines than those typically found in Gainesville. “We focus more on quality over quantity,” Cooley said.
