Knit/Purl is my favorite yarn store. They have a beautiful shop with an incredible selection of yarns, including Isager, Habu, Shibui, BrooklynTweed, and Swan Island. They also have a great website for shopping online. The staff are very knowledgeable and helpful, and have a great eye for color and style choices. I've been here many times and have never found any of their staff to be dismissive or rude, as some of the other comments state. The price selection might be a bit high relative to the yarn lines carried at other shops, but these are unique yarns that are difficult to find elsewhere.
The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming here, and the shop owner Cindy is very helpful. They have a unique selection of spinning fiber, hand-dyed yarn, and handspun yarn from local fiber artists. They had a great stash-buster sale this year, which I hope they do again.
