I found them on Facebook and saw they were doing various classes, since I last tried and failed at knitting when I was 18, I decided perhaps 36 is the age I will figured out how to crochet!

I don't know why I didn't think to review Sylvia's before now - I'm in there all the time!…read more Let's start off with Sylvia. She is one of the nicest people you will meet. Ever. She's very knowledgeable about quilting and sewing in general. The staff there is great as well. They will spend as long as it takes to find the one perfect fabric you are missing from your project. I mean AS LONG as you need them to. The other day I had found 7 of 8 fabrics I needed for a project and just couldn't come up with that perfect last one. After 20 minutes or more we found it! I say we, like I had some hand in it. It was really the 2 other ladies that were scouring the store to please me. They ROCK! :) The store is well lit with room to move around. The fabrics are grouped by type (batik, flannel, cotton, Asian,) and then by color. They have a nice selection of rulers, cutters, threads, quilting patterns, fat quarters, do-dads, and general sewing-type notions. There are sample quilts & projects hanging EVERYWHERE to inspire you. Gift cards are available! In the back of the store there are large tables for classes. Samples of all the class projects are hanging to you can get an up-close look at what you're going to make. Stop by Sylvia's, you'll love it. Even if you're only going in to pet the fabric. :)

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

By all means, they're beautiful, unique and made a lovely hat and fingerless gloves, but dang! I sure hope my son's girlfriend loves them! :D The nice lady working in there was very kind, available if needed and just allowed me to browse at my own pace. It's quite nice that they offer to roll the hank of yarn into a ball for you as well, which only takes a minute or two each. Just as the pandemic was hitting in the spring, they were getting ready to have classes for spinning yarn and unfortunately that has been postponed until all this ridiculousness is over. I'll probably go to a class or two, since I do have a wheel of my own. I merely dock a star for the price... by all means I will keep shopping there when I'm in need of fabulous yarn, but it's not for the random piece or practice project for sure. If you're looking for a specialty yarn for yourself or a gift, I highly recommend The Tangled Skein!

They have so much to choose from. They happened to have some doggy donut samples out, which immediately grabbed my attention. One doggy donut quickly turned into several because I have three dogs and there was no way they were going to share. The fresh treats were such a fun touch, and I loved seeing options like donuts and cookies available right in the store. AK Bark has a really nice variety of dog toys, clothing, accessories, and treats. Everything was easy to find, and the store itself was clean and well stocked. The staff made the experience even better. Everyone was friendly and helpful. No pressure, just good vibes and great customer service. If you are looking for a place to spoil your dog or dogs a little, AK Bark is definitely worth checking out. As always my German translation, for anyone else who is bilingual out there. Nach Thanksgiving ging ich bei AK Bark vorbei, um einen bestellten Hunde Adventskalender abzuholen, und habe am Ende hab ich natürlich noch viel mehr gekauft. Das passiert mir doch irgendwie jedes Mal. Die Auswahl ist einfach grossartig. Sie hatten zufällig ein paar sample von Hunde Donuts da, von welchen ich sofort eines ausgesuch hab. Aus einem Donut wurden dann schnell mehrere, weil ich drei Hunde habe geht das Teilen nicht, also habe ich zwei zusätzliche gekauft. Die frischen hunde kekse sind wirklich eine tolle Idee, und ich finde es super, dass Sie Sachen wie Donuts und Kekse haben. AK Bark hat eine richtig schöne Auswahl an Spielzeug, Kleidung, Zubehör und Leckereien für alle Hunde. Der Laden sauber, übersichtlich und die Regale voll. Das Team hat das Einkaufserlebnis noch besser gemacht. Alle waren freundlich und hilfsbereit. Kein Verkaufsdruck, einfach eine angenehme Atmosphäre und richtig guter Service. Wenn man seinen Hund oder Hunde ein bisschen verwöhnen möchte, ist AK Bark auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert.

They were so helpful and patient, will definitely return, highly recommend thank youread more
