I walked in overwhelmed with the selection as they have so much to choose from. I will definitely be returning - very kind and personable. They take their time showing you around the store, answer any questions you may have, and make a shopping experience overall extremely pleasant. Not to mention the prices are more than reasonable.

It is easily one of the best shops I have visited. The staff was so extremely friendly and warm. The yarn selection was ample and the atmosphere is professional but welcoming. It is very clean and bright. The prices were half of what I would pay at home in Texas. But the best part? BUNNIES!!!! I am completely smitten with this shop and hope to hop back in the next time I'm here!

What a beautiful shop! The owner was super sweet and loved the variety of items they carry. I got a…read morefew art prints to frame, love supporting local artists.

Rhode Craft is a shop similar to Frog & Toad with local artisans represented but not as comical. Straightforward items from jewelry to home goods to stickers. A few items a little high priced and some reasonable. They had a clearance table, which I love! Again, a great addition to Hope! (I bought a little ring holder dish, black heart shape $3 on clearance)

Warning: biased review. I'm a guy in a craft store!…read more While I do have some crafting interests, they usually involve saws and lots of glue. So while my girlfriend was sifting through the fabric to make some pretty cool future craft project, i naturally sat in front of the $8499 embroidery machine with the super-wham-o-dyne touch screen interface. I clicked "OK" on the screen because it was CALLING ME to, then a bunch of stuff started happening and the embroidery table started moving all around. I got the DEATH GLARE from the employee working there, then she proceeded to condescendingly explain to me why I shouldn't calibrate the machine. HEY JO-ANN! If you don't want people playing with it, TURN IT OFF! It's on display for people to test out, right? Grr. Otherwise the store is okay, it has a bunch of stuff in about every crafting category you could think of - from paper maiche to framing to quilting, sewing, baking, and who knows what else. Best part: Del's Lemonade truck in the parking lot, but that's for a different review.

Ok so for a craft store this place is not bad.

This store, while painful did host some positive features/ Items are organized, it is clean and the music is fairly soothing.

I like that someone described this as an oddity. It's dark, smelly, and just piles upon piles of…read morehuuuge cones of mystery yarn. No labels about content, no yardage info, even the gauge is iffy (because it's on a cone, so it's compressed). Just stuff. The guy buys mill ends and mistake things that bigger yarn manufacturers don't want - kinda like the TJ Maxx of yarn. So some of the stuff is really good; a lot of it is "wtf??" I know for sure that a bunch of the cones were Lion Brand homespun. Mostly you just have to rely on the man's memory & guess for what the fiber content & weight is. Since 95% of stuff is on cones, you won't find much worsted or heavier weights. But he does have a wall of hanks with really nice stuff - the actual stuff you'll find in a nice yarn shop and for the same price as everything else: $8 per pound for 100% wool; $4/lb for wool blends. You just gotta wash it a lot to get out that weird factory smell. Vanessa T's photos show everything perfectly. He also has a big supply of random vintage notions. Like elastic for sewing for 50 cents per package. Or some new-in-package Ace bandages from 30 years ago, if that's your bag.
