    Lady was extremely rude on the phone, she was toxic enough to waste my time to give her a bad review. Karma's a bitch

    I love the needles. I've been collecting one or two a year, and treasure them. However my last…read moreexperience left a lot to be desired. I'd ordered needles to start a special project. The size 8 needle arrived with a size 3 cable. When I called, the person who answered the phone obviously was more concerned about the incorrect cable getting back to them. I spoke to a couple other in my knitting group who said they'd had similar experiences. In a return call to the first representative, I told her of other knitters telling me they'd had similar issues, she said she'd never heard such a thing. Based on these Yelp reviews, I think that was less than an honest answer. When I spend this kind of money for the Cadillac of needles, I think there needs to be some customer service included. IN THE END, when pressed to speak to a supervisor (and I mean pressed), I did receive a return call. This woman rectified the situation immediately. No questions asked. She was very kind, apologized for any confusion. I received the correct cable within a day and all is right with the world. Too bad I had to fight for it!

    These are wonderful needles - I own a number of the straight needles, and the stiletto points are…read moreamazing. But when I ordered a pair of circulars for a project, I called to ask about how quickly things ship, and I was told that if I ordered before Noon, the needles would ship same day. AND I paid a huge premium for overnight delivery. (Anyone who has purchased Signaure needles will be shocked to learn that I paid nearly as much for shipping as I did for the needles.) When I didn't get a shipping email, I called today - they day they were supposed to be delivered - to get the tracking number, and I discovered that "for some reason, those were not shipped out. I will see if I can get those out to you today." From reading the reviews here, it is clear that, while they make wonderful needles, their customer service is a huge weakness, and I am very disappointed.

Along with that special if you buy a machine you then get 20% off for the next I don't know how many years. They have terrific values in their clearance section too.

The fabrics he has are beautiful, the service to repair machines is efficient and thorough and it's the place to go if you are in the market for a machine.

Will definitely be going again.

LOL Instead I followed my daughter around and touched all the soft and pretty yarn while she decided which of the thousands of yarns she wanted to make her sweater with. "Soft yarn, warm yarn, pretty ball of yarn. Happy yarn, sleepy yarn. Purl, Knit Purl." Sorry back to my review. 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.

Amazing staff, exceptionally skilled and caring, are generous with their time and expertise. It is a delightful, cozy space, and if the yarns themselves or the samples displayed don't inspire you to start a project, the wooden tables continuously occupied by knitters (and crocheters, too) will make you want to pull up a chair and begin. Seated around the tables, it always looks like a group of friends have gathered to share time, stories, and craft--yet these are classes. Yes, you can sign up and join the party! And I have. Not only are there classes for specific projects, there are also classes where everyone is working on their own individual projects. Oh, how I love being able to have expert advice on how to read my patterns, fix my mistakes, and finish my projects. I love Three Bags Full, and the passionate, talented people who work there with my whole heart, and I invite you to visit. Support a local, woman-owned business. Take a class (they fill quickly), browse the notions (practical and/or whimsical, just what you need), and treat yourself to some fabulous yarn. Bring a friend, or make a friend when you get there (or both), you'll be so glad you did!

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!

Before you leave, don't forget to purchase a dozen fresh farm eggs! We can't wait to visit again!
