I have to put my two cents in here......I was new to Traverse City three years ago and first went to Yarn Quest on Garfield Road because it was closer to our home. I was in the shop 10-15 minutes without the least bit of an acknowledgement from the two people in the store who were deep into hushed-whisper gossip (I'm assuming at least one of them was an employee). So, I marched out of there and into Lost Art where I was warmly welcomed and guided for a new project.

I've since taken classes and bought *all* my knitting supplies at Lost Art and will never return to Yarn Quest. Gerhild is unbelievably knowledgeable and has shared her wisdom with many.....we are all better knitters because of her!
