How to use KnitMap.com to find yarn stores

Finding a yarn shop on KnitMap is easy. From the home page enter the city, state, zip code or even the whole address of the area you're searching. To narrow your search you can select any of the search criteria, such as refreshing beverages or wifi, and then click 'Find Yarn Shops'. You will be transported to a map showing you all the yarn shops that we know of near your area of interest. You can adjust the map scale to narrow or expand your search, and from the map you can select a location to see all the details that have been entered, including the address, hours of operation, web site URL, and even photos.

Here is where you come in. We encourage you to leave a comment on each location, as well as upload your own photos. If you want credit for your contribution, you can create your very own user account, or you can be anonymous...it's completely up to you. However, if you have a user account, can save a list of your favorite yarn stores (that you can share with everyone else on the site), and give each store a rating based on its atmosphere, selection and service. We will also be holding raffles and contests for fun prizes.

Know of a great store, but don't see it listed? You can add new yarn store to our database, or if you find a mistake in one of the shop detail pages, you can submit updates to us to make sure it's completely accurate and up to date.

Do you own or manage a yarn store? KnitMap is a great place to post about specials, events, and store features.
