got lost the first time I tried to find this store, but was glad I kept driving around til I spotted. great store packed full of yarny goodness. particularly good selection of sock yarns. and kathy is super friendly and helpful. they have a good class schedule and regular "knit ins" which I've not yet been able to partake in because of my crazy schedule.

Cute little shop with a nice selection of sock yarns. Will probably visit again when home visiting the family.

Ran in over the holiday's with my mom. very cute atmosphere with a little coffee cafe inside. and they had a little concert going on with some kids from a local school. happened to have my yorkipoo puppy with and they allowed us in, but dont know what their official policy would be on it. mom was excited about the yarn selection, but they didn't have a ton of the brands I normally like.

Love this store more and more every time I'm there. Best selection in yarn in all of chicago area from my experience. Especially sock yarns. Very friendly and helpful and located in a great quaint spot.

Great selection. Prices a little high. They were always friendly and helpful with me when I lived in the area and would frequent the store. But I can see that some would think they were snooty ... did overhear a staff member on the phone with a customer saying "you should probably just go to michaels then"

Store was okay. Varied selection tightly packed in. Nothing I was wild about. Lady working there offered the two other customers to sign up for the frequent shopper program but didn't say a word about it to me. Don't know that I'd drive back when there are other stores closer to me.

I'd like to see the list pop up in order of the number of comments or highest ratings. That way if you are in a new city you know which places the most folks have been too or the highest rated stores in the area.

By the way, Pam does have extended hours the 1st Friday of every month and the 2nd Sunday of every month. Details on her web site.

Its nice for sitting at the shop and knitting with others!

I've had several people on Ravelry say the store is in the process of going out of business.
