This shop is huge, with an amazing inventory of yarn in a wide range of prices. There are several comfortable seating areas and customers sit and knit by the hour. The shop has needlepoint and cross-stitch as well, but the emphasis is on knitting. Lots of classes are offered and there is a separate classroom so that you can concentrate on the instruction. Every time I've been there, something seems to be on sale and there is a big clearance area, too.

The sock yarn selection is so large you can get lost in it. There is tons of seating, and the shop is huge.

You gotta love this shop. Lots of festive women knitting, chatting, laughing. And, beautiful yarn! Always a favorite stop in CU!

I am AMAZED by the size and selection offered here. If you can't find something in this shop you can't find it anywhere. We were welcomed upon entering the store, but pretty much ignored after that.
That said, I was in on a Saturday and it appears that a regular knitting group was there. They took OVER the middle room....it was impossible to look at any of the yarns in this room based on the crowd sitting around the incredible large table. Plus, they had brought in food for the crowd....very smelly...not what you want to smell when you walk into a yarn store.
