Walked into Farm North Yarn Company as a guy who knows absolutely nothing about yarn... and walked…read moreout feeling like I just got a masterclass. I went in to grab a gift for my wife, fully expecting to point at something and hope for the best. Instead, Ms. Kay took the time to walk me through different types of yarn, what they're used for, and even the kinds of projects they go into. She didn't just sell me yarn, she educated me... patiently. The shop itself is a great setup. Tons of options, great quality, and you can tell everything in there has a purpose. It's one of those places where people who know what they're doing can really get after it, and people like me don't feel completely lost. Bottom line, Ms. Kay is just a genuinely good human being. Friendly, knowledgeable, and runs a solid business. Highly recommend for anyone into crafts... or for husbands trying not to mess up a gift. #SupportLocal #SmallBusiness #Alaska #CraftLife #ShopLocal #MayorJacobs
