about The Websters on Thu Jan 17 13:34:48 +0000 2008

Lovely store with exquisite handmade garments. Very classy, but equally friendly. If you are in town for the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, a visit to this store is a MUST!

about The Yarn Corner at Wiitamaki's on Thu Jan 17 13:57:16 +0000 2008

I stop here on my way out to the WA coast as often as I can--it's the last real yarn store before you get to the beach. GREAT atmosphere and an owner who really cares about her customers. True small-town hospitality in an era where that's a rarity. LOOK for this store behind the Wiitamaki Jewelry Store.

about Canvas Works on Thu Mar 20 13:13:04 +0000 2008

Nice folks and a super selection. Well worth the drive to OLY, a city with cool shops and cooler people. Spend a day there and just walk about. I didn't run into the crabby man, just nice real yarn people who were helpful without hovering.

about Lamb's Ear Farm on Thu Jan 17 13:00:57 +0000 2008

A 3-star store for me, too. Be prepared to pay for knitting help.

about Renaissance Yarns on Thu Jan 17 13:07:27 +0000 2008

Gorgeous shop with lots of yarn. Friendly, helpful staff. Go there!

about Yorkshire Yarns on Thu Jan 17 13:05:43 +0000 2008

A dandy shop with friendly help. Lovely yarns and fair prices. I heard the owner did some customer research before she opened, and it shows. I love this place, too!

about Dublin Bay Knitting Company on Tue Jan 19 22:29:26 +0000 2010

Fantastic store-GO THERE! Folks SO helpful, and the yarns are spectacular. I saw things I had only read about-visiting is an eye-opener and an educational experience, too!
