This is such a nice shop. Great community feel, friendly folks behind the counter, and a passion for the yarn.

Lots of comfy couches! And there's a pub right next door. :-)

Twisted has best sock yarn selection in Portland! Open knit/craft nights on Tuesdays, movie nights on Fridays, and great schedule of rotating classes.

And this is where I found those fabulous Yarn Traveller bags after reading about them on the always intriguing Twisted blog.

I'm so happy to have found a new teaching spot at Twisted! Every time I go there I am always so happy and greeted so warmly that I wish I could spend all my free time there... but hey, a girl's gotta work and make money for my yarn habit, right?

Small but mighty, Twisted is a wonderful addition to Portland's LYS scene. The atmosphere is very inviting. Who can resist yarn, knitting, and a cup of tea? You'll find a grand selection of sock yarns from independent dyers here that you usually can't find except online. Great to be able to touch and feel the loveliness! The enthusiasm of the staff can't be beat, either. Do not miss Twisted!

Great place to teach, learn, get yarn, get help. I come all the way across town just to knit there. Lovely tea, too!

Shannon and Emily are da bomb! Great sock yarn selection and lovely tea (you must try the sour apple).

Great, Happy New Years to all.
