The yarn shop was larger than I expected and I purchased a lot more yarn here, than at the crowded festival. I even bought some awesome fluffy pom-poms at a reasonable price. Loved it here, it was peaceful after the crowds at the festival. Great distillery across the street to entertain the rest of my group while I shopped in peace.

I was returning to Toronto from a girls' weekend at a lake house in CT and included the shop on my route home. I was planning to only allow myself 30min, but stayed for over an hour. I came away with some lovely yarn for a new project, an extra skein (just because it was a gorgeous colour), a cute project bag and some stitch markers to share with knitting friends. I had a wonderful chat with Jodi, who is recently retired from her teaching career and the new owner of the shop! She is so excited about this new venture and preparing for the upcoming NY Sheep & Wool Festival. Go visit this lovely shop! You won't regret it!

Not only did she take the time to talk me through any questions I had, she also entertained my 30 year old boyfriend by showing him how a yarn swift works. Come on...that's adorable and you know it. She has amazing kits and lots of fairisle patterns and designs, so definitely check this place out if you're looking for a cozy, warm knitting store with the items to match.

To whomever was responsible for that SHAME ON YOU. Thankfully, these tactics did not work and I am now able to continue to live my own true authentic life as I please without interference from this type of bullying, which is a great relief. Thank you Jon R. for pointing all this out to me. You were very brave and didn't deserve to be silenced by the algorithm. I'll be doing everything in my power to reverse that decision. My advice: Put out more positive energy into the world, you will become a much happier person and that will translate into better business success! Check out my review and the other reviews for places to start on improving the in-store customer experience. (Hint: the word "rude" appears quite often, should probably start there). ORIGINAL: Made in China! Came here once or twice and then saw the same "natural fibers" sold wholesale by AliBaba for a fraction of the price. Potential consumers, PLEASE do your research and don't fall for this imitation snake oil act. The FTC should look into this place and their shady practices. Makes sense that they try to hide growing negative sentiment from the knitting community by having multiple Yelp profiles . Terrible service, extremely rude management selling low quality fibers masquerading as a luxury brand. Similar to a knockoff handbag, so if that's your aim then you're in luck. Otherwise, just steer clear of these shysters.

Even if your brushes are dried out this stuff brings them back and it also easily removes paint etc. from your hands. And it's bio. I've tried to order it from Catskill AS but they won't order it saying that their supplier doesn't carry it. I CAN order it from Rhinebeck Art Supply in New Paltz and I do but Catskill is closer and I'd gladly get it from there when I purchase other items. I used to live in NYC and shopped at New York Central Art Supply and it was a pleasure and a great place. For an art supply store not to be able to order certain items is inexcusable. If you need it and it exists they should be able to order it. Bad business practice. If you are reading this try the stuff it's amazing. New Paltz will have it in the store in a couple of weeks. I'm trying to order it directly from the company. I don't think she does that because she honors businesses.
