Cute little shop with some very friendly and helpful workers. It has a bit of everything, knitting supplies, spinning supplies and weaving supplies. Because the type of supplies are diverse their selection isn't very varied but it's a great one-stop shop.

This place has a large selection of yarns at good prices. I like it because it has a bit of everything when it comes to yarn from sock yarns to bulky weight yarns and a variety of fiber types. Just a warning when you go their for the first time, there is no entrance from Route 31, you have to turn onto Tree Farm Rd. I drove right by it the first time because I thought there would be an entrance from the main highway.

This is a nice but small store. There selection isn't large but if you are looking for some really nice specialty yarns or hand-dyed or spun then this place is great.

Their yarns are absolutely fabulous and are definitely unique. My favorite part about this store is that they allow you to do a test swatch before you buy the yarn, this way you can see if it will work for your project or if it behaves the way you'd like it to. They have nice comfy chairs you can sit down in and a huge selection of needles to use so you can test out different gauges and yarns to find just the one you are looking for. I'll definitely be heading back the next time I'm in SF

I've only been to this store once during a yarn crawl but the people there were extremely nice and they had a nice selection of yarn. It's a little crazy to find their parking but the store is really nice and cozy.

This is one of my favorite yarn stores as they have a wonderful selection of yarns and notions. The people there are also really helpful and cheerful. Their prices are also a bit better then some of the other stores in the area.

I love just browsing through all their yarns, especially the sock yarns. The store is also filled with completed projects which helps to inspire me. If you don't get an idea of new projects from those hanging around the store they also have a really nice selection of books and patterns.
