    I wouldn't recommend Wasting your time with this Needlepoint store. I want to start off by saying…read morethat I love to support local small businesses and usually give them a healthy amount of grace, but unfortunately there were just too many hiccups that put me into a knot. Firstly, I placed a custom order of thread which is done to ensure you get all of the same dye lot. When I was stitching my canvas I noticed that one of my skeins was a slightly different shade than the others! I checked the rest of the skeins and found a few more that didn't match which is so disappointing. This was not an inexpensive purchase and candidly I don't know if I can trust them with another custom order. Secondly, the markup on their in store canvases is quite a lot. I saw this cute canvas in store and found the same design from the same designer through an online website and they charged a 60% markup! I understand markups as retail space is expensive and if they are ordering from a warehouse. But for a design I could buy myself online- this was nuts! Lastly, the stores is a bit dated. Needlepoint has been around for ages and so has the inventory of this store- they have some beautiful canvas but also a of more dated styles. Overall, I think I'll be looking for a new needlepoint store in the DMV because this place is Knot it.

    I went here on rainy Saturday morning and it was packed. I've been wanting to get into needlepoint…read moreand the staff was super friendly and knowledgeable here. I left with a few canvas and threads. I can't wait to complete the ones I got, so I can get some more. Lol.

David responded right away to my email request and then turned around a digital sample for review within hours. I delivered the 10 shirts to him last Saturday and they were ready by Wednesday of this past week. My husband picked up the shirts yesterday. We are extremely pleased with the work. I would definitely recommend Ballyhoo for your embroidery.

Blank coveralls in hand, I started trolling the yellow pages for an embroidery service to sew my name and job on the pocket, and I found Ballyhoo, right across the street from my office in Courthouse Plaza. I brought them in, explained what I wanted, and the shop turned them around in just 3 days, more than enough time for me to rock the con. They didn't even charge me a rush fee. David, the owner, was helpful and personable both on the phone and in person, and gave me exactly what I was looking for. In addition to custom embroidery, he can do custom screen printing, transfers, and promo items- I kind of want to go look for more things I can have him embroider because I'm so pleased. If you're looking for a local business to do shirts for your office, Little League uniforms, mousepads with your kids on them, or any custom printing, I highly recommend giving Ballyhoo a call.

    In the summer of 2013 I moved from the UK to Washington DC. In an effort to make friends and get…read moreout the house when I knew I would not be working for a while I decided to look for classes on groupon. For the insanely cheap price of $130 dollars or so i got to have two official knitting lessons and as much sit and knit as I could possibly want. I started in September when classes started again after the summer and pretty much went to every sit and knit I was entitled too go to every sat and sun from then untill I left DC to move to Cali in June 2014. I miss sit and knit and the expertise and friendships I made at this class. I not only got my monies worth but gained even more in friendship and life long skills. I made fingerless gloves, scarves (5 in total) a bear and am now working on a bedside mat. I believe some people have had some issues below which quite frankly leave me perplexed - How can something be a scam if you get your money back from groupon? This is a one woman show, which pretty much means if something comes up then things might not happen. Thats just the way it is when you run a small business by yourself. The number of times I witnessed people coming to class not reading what they needed to bring or where they needed to meet were so numerous and somehow this was never their fault. Take responsibility for yourselves please people. You are an adult!

I'm a self-taught knitter using books and the Internet. When I went to class explain what I want to do to Terri, and she helped me and I have been making much more complicated patterns since then. I go every Sunday when I can and I always have a great time & I met a great group of women in the process. I can't wait for the next project. Terri was very patient with my questions, sometimes the same one multiple times. If you forget your stitch markers, don't worry someone will have them.
