about Jessica Knits on Sun Oct 07 18:08:49 +0000 2007

I was in Phoenix on business in September, and took a quick jaunt out to the upscale burbs to this shop, as it looked very nice from the website. When I pulled up - at like 12Noon - it was closed for inventory. The website said nothing about them being closed, and needless to say I was very disappointed that I could not shop.

Maybe next time...

about The Yarn Barn of San Antonio on Sun Oct 07 17:54:04 +0000 2007

They have an wide assortment of yarn, books, needles and magazines, and carry a lot of needlework supplies, too. The women that work there are *amazingly* helpful. One of them told me she was 80-something and helped me understand circs! It's a bit crowded in the shop - the tables for classes are crammed up against the displays so that was awkward to shop around when a class was going on. Love the old wooden floors, but the shop could just use a wee bit of organizing and spiffy-ing up. Also not a part of town I'd want to be in after dark!

Super yarn store. Very friendly, younger crowd. Tons of yarns and comfy seating! ;)

about Rosewood Yarns on Sun Oct 07 17:47:47 +0000 2007

The ladies are SO helpful there, and they have a nice variety of the old standby Cascade 220, plus Berrocco and some locally grown/spun/dyed products. Although I do not spin, I believe they carry a bunch of spinning wheels and drop spindles, too.
