The people that work there are so pleasant and they always have simply fabulous yarns.

I wish they were closer to me or had one day a week where they were open past six pm. I'd love to go to this shop more often.

I hate the way the florescent lights make this place feel like a basement. I've been there a couple of times and the woman was pretty condescending and completely un-helpful.

They do have a pretty nice range of yarns though from redheart to karabella and brown sheep to debbie bliss.

I used to go here every day last year, but the atmosphere has suffered considerably since September.

I stopped in on a business trip rather quickly before my flight left. It seemed like the kind of place where, if I'd had the time, I could have spent the rest of the day there. The lady was super nice. She ordered the yarn I wanted in a colorway i couldn't find in the bins and sent it this week!

I just stopped in there for a bit after a meeting last week. Knitting there totally made my day and I felt at home instantly! It was so nice to be able to knit with people away from home without feeling as though I were an outsider!

They had a great selection when I went to visit. A decent amount of lace weight yarn as well as bulky yarn.

A woman at this shop told me that I couldn't knit something, which personally, I think is a no-no. They were also completely unhelpful when I came in at a different time with a problem. While they have nice yarn, both of those experiences make me want to not spend money there.

Great shop! Wicked friendly staff!
I walked in once, and even though I didn't buy a book there, she gave me a copy of the errata for it.
