This is my absolute favourite LYS. I live only three blocks away and rarely find the need to go to any other store. The staff are very helpful and have helped me choose yarn for projects as well as talking me through a few knitting disasters. The staff clearly have a passion for knitting and yarn. There is a huge selection of sample projects to inspire you in a warm cozy atmosphere!
A lovely store with a great selection of yarn - including some affordable selections. There doesn't seem to be the passion for knitting and yarn that you find at some stores which means I don't always get inspired when there (eg. most of the sample projects seem to have been supplied by the yarn manufacturers). The staff has always been very helpful however, and clearly know their stuff.
A lovely store with great selection - as previous posters have mentioned. You can feel the passion for knitting! I personally find the store a little too disorganized however, with yarn stuffed into every nook and cranny in no discernable order. I end up feeling overwhelmed and so visit rarely.
I recently visited this store and was delighted. There is a good selection of yarn in a comfortable atmosphere. The staff member on duty was very helpful but also gave me space to browse. I'll be back when I'm in Chilliwack.

I have always found the staff helpful but find the selection limited and the store univiting and uninspiring.
