Very nice staff, however the knitting section is barely there. They are mostly a cross stitch and needle point shop with a SMALL walk in closet size room of yarn and books. The selection was VERY limited both in variety and in color within what they had. Again, they were VERY nice though. Looked like the selection of stuff in the other sections was good, but I don't do either of those crafts.

Great shop. Nice staff and selection. Support not only knitting, but spinning and weaving as well. Also there is a selection of knit originals and handmade jewelry etc for sale.

Friendly staff, great selection of both yarn and notions (books, etc.). Fantastic classes and a great atmosphere for sitting and knitting.

Nice and spacious shop - just opened. Friendly staff. We were there for the grand opening. Some of their yarn is a little over priced, but that happens. The selection of sock yarn is small but they are a new shop, so they are probably still building up stock.

Great stock of koigu as well as a nice selection of sock yarn. WALL O NORO - actually wall and a half. The staff was friendly and really wanted to know what we wanted to see in the shop.

I really enjoyed this shop when I was in. I was on vacation and it came HIGHLY recommended. I was NOT disappointed. Great selection. GREAT service and a perfect sitting area for knitting. The samples are beautiful and timely, and the yarns were amazing. I spent WAY too much money.

this is a cute shop. The directions we got elsewhere weren't great, but when we called they got us right there! Great pattern support, nice selection of books, yarns and notions.
