I'm rating Fiberwood Studio 3 stars because I am a knitter and this cute little shop is less for…read moreknitters and more for weaving and they have very restrictive hours for someone who works during the day. My favorite yarn shop closed a couple of years ago and so I had been buying yarn online. I was in a bind and needed some to knit up a weekend project for my coworker's baby and found Fiberwood on Yelp. It's in a nice location in 'Tosa in a residential area so it's not very crowded and you should have no trouble finding parking, especially since they are only open during the day. I walked in and browsed around there were 3-4 other people in there receiving help with projects. The first thing I noticed is that there weren't that many yarns, but the yarns they do carry were a decent quality. Cascade 220 in a variety of colors, ECO Wool, Malabrigo....I was happy with the color selection of the Cascade 220s, but the colors I was interested in did not have enough skeins for me to complete the project. After I browsed, I was greeted by a person I believe to be the owner. I showed her the pattern for the hooded baby wrap and that I was looking for a yarn and open to restrictions as long as it was a natural fiber. We looked at a few options and I eventually settled on the Malabrigo Mecha super wash in Dewberry at $15.95 each. If you need needles, books, or patterns, she has that as well. I'm not sure what brand of needles (I'm an Addi Turbo fan), but I did see she had them on the wall. They accept cash, Visa and MasterCard and she bagged the yarn for me. I really appreciated her help and I would definitely go back if I needed certain yarns. I wish I could have given four stars, but I had to take off work to go there because of the hours and there were quantity shortages for all of the yarn colors I was interested in the Cascade 220. This would be limiting for larger projects like blankets or sweaters, but it is a smaller shop less targeted towards yarn, so I understand.

This is my new favorite place to hang out! This place will surprise you! It's the oldest yarn store…read morein Wisconsin and formerly a real yarn mill! The current owner of the yarn store, who is often on site, can tell you the history of the mill and store. She's a wonderful conversationalist and you'll just want to grab a hot cocoa and listen to how she's managed the store over the years. The store is filled with beautiful textiles that just make you want to lay down and make yarn snowmen. That's a thing! Right? I love walking through and looking at all the textures and colors. Every corner has something that captures my eye or attention. All the events provide coupons, gifts, and ideas to encourage purchasing at reasonable prices. There's a "secret" room in the neck with discounted yarn. Do NOT miss this special room. There are beautiful choices in that room that allow you to make full projects at reasonable prices The best part though is the coziness of the shop. There are little nooks and crannies in which to sit and create beautiful things. I like to bring my needles and yarn and just sit in the gathering area crocheting while people come and go. The constant movement, chatter, and energy of people around me while my service dog sleeps near my feet feels like a little retreat. It calms my spirit to get in this shop! The shop has events, classes, workshops, and is an amazing community of talented textile artisans eager to share their skills and knowledge. The owner is proud to share the space with community members. She and her staff make this a warm welcoming place to hang out. It's a getaway in the Village. An unassuming little spot that you'll have no reason to seek out but once you find it, you'll never want to leave! People make it wonderful! The yarn and activities make the shop feel like home! Drop in and fall in love with The Grafton Yarn Store. Save me and the dog a seat!

We were greeted by 2 associates as we entered and they were happy to answer my daughter's questions. Not only is this a retail space, but a warehouse. They were glad to pull anything they had online from the warehouse for her to look at. Can't say enough about the quality and selection here.

Hear ye, hear ye! Ye Olde Alpaca Shoppe is a funne activity as an adulte or kid!…read more Who wouldn't want to pet soft fuzzy alpacas? I sent a text as requested from their website to make an appointment for a tour and while it took a few days to respond back to me, we were able to book on a convenient day for us. In addition to the alpacas, there are rabbits, pot bellied pigs, horses, ducks, cows, and goats just to name a few of the farm folk that live here. The two young assistants that gave us the tour were very experienced and mature beyond their years. They had a lot of knowledge about each animal. If you wish to browse at the gift store, there's a lot of alpaca wool clothing, accessories, and stuffies for sale. They also sell their wares at local farmer's markets so check them out if you are interested in alpaca wool items. The cost of admission is very reasonable at $10 per person. If you are a fan of petting zoos and alpacas this is your place!
