This is a really great yarn shop. I fell in love with a RYC pattern while I was there, but I couldn't afford the yarn, so they helped me find a sub right there in the store. The regulars around the table were really friendly, and invited me to sit with them and knit & chat.

i went to this shop on a saturday morning. (there's a great little brunch place about 2 blocks away, btw.) the shop opened late, which usually doesn't bother me, but it ended up being just another drop in the bucket in the long run. the owner seemed to be much more interested in helping the two gentlemen that walked in right after me than she was in helping me. i felt like i was a burden on the owner's time. she was clearly not interested in helping me. i was never greeted. i was never asked how i was finding things. i was never asked what i was working on or what i was looking for. i left without buying anything.
however, great collection of kidsilk. buttons out the wazoo. the shop was comfortable and easy to move around in. just wish it wasn't so icy....

A very small, but warm shop.
My husband gets dragged to my yarn crawls, and what was so nice about this shop was at the time we visited, the table was packed with about 5 or so knitters of all age ranges. The ladies happily kept my husband occupied as I browsed the selection. The range of topics discussed had me laughing, I really wanted to go back to the hotel, grab some knitting and hang out!
I ended up leaving with a magazine and a couple skeins of awesome, local hand-painted sock yarn. The owner was really charming and just a joy to chat with. Although the shop is small, there is a nice selection of yarn, lovely displays, and books/magazines, and a very warm, inviting vibe. If you are in the area, definitely stop by and support this lovely shop.
