Small space, limited selection, and mediocre service. The shop has potential now that it is under new management however. Atmosphere has a dead quality to it. Would visit in emergencies.

New owner is FANTASTIC... and she's turning over the crapp-o acrylic to fine quality wools and fibers. I visit at least once a week... Monday night knitting group from 6:30-8:30.

I would definately visit this shop again! The owner was really helpful, and a pleasure to talk to. She helped me find some obscure items, and was full of suggestions. I'll be back!!
