Stumbled upon this one. It's tiny and was cramped. We understood though as it was right after StitchesEast. Had great customer service.

Yes, The Yarn Garden actually has a garden, a lovely one right at its entrance! This is a welcoming little place. The owner has a great sense of fun, and during our visit, she had a tableful of knitters engaged in animated conversation, which we were encouraged to join.

The shop had a good selection of yarns, buttons, notions, books and bags (I'm still dreaming about the new version of a Namaste bag I passed up there!), but we had to hunt for prices on the bins (the owner was more than happy to price things for us). There was a nook devoted to all things sequinned and sparkly. The yarns were in a bit of disarray, but the shop had had three days' worth of yarn crawlers coming through for the I-91 Shop Hop. I did spot some ancient yarns on the regular shelves that I would normally find in discount bins, and the shop really needed a good vacuuming & straightening up, which, for all I know, happened after we shop hoppers cleared out. I can't judge if this little gem needs polishing or if I simply arrived in the eye of the storm of ravenous yarn shoppers. If I lived in CT (I live a plane ride away), I'd return to find out.
