Some of them required a yarn balling machine and they explained that to her too. My other daughter bought a delightful crochet jellyfish. They are now a regular destination for us when we are here visiting family. I highly recommend them! If you are looking for craft supplies or a unique gift, this is the place to go!

I took home some nice sale yarns as well as some full-priced ones, a sock knitting book, and circular needles. They have a nice selection and service was very helpful.

This store is truly worth a visit! It is seriously a visit to a different decade. The entire store…read morecould be in the fifties, or earlier. It's homey and simply arranged with real examples of what talented crafters can do with lovely materials. Sadly, I am not (yet) one such person. As with the shopfronts of the past, the owner lives upstairs, and will advise her customers that they can call if she's popped upstairs during business hours. The owner (I think her name is Pamela, but I've lost the business card.) takes yarn VERY SERIOUSLY. I recently went in for a gift for a relative who had made me a very large afghan. I wanted to buy the relative a fancy yarn that would be a pleasure for her to make something for herself. The owner asked me more questions than I even knew the answers to, and together we arrived at a beautiful wine colored yarn of a sort of silken material. It was a little dear, but I think the yarn will be a lovely scarf or shawl. The owner will answer ANY questions that you have. I don't think there's anything about knitting or crocheting that she doesn't know. Of course she teaches as well. In keeping with the classic theme, there is no Internet portal with which to access the store. I was told that if the owner had a computer it would probably be flying out of her upstairs window in short order. But, really, shouldn't we leave the house and meet our retailers sometimes? I strongly recommend this store to crafty folks!

Now after all these years and now being retired and having the time, I'm ready to expand my skills. Now let me preface the fact I'm a lefty, so this is probably why I never went further that a simple stitch/blanket. But now you can find videos and tutorials, yay! So... off to the yarn shop. I mean Michael's has yarn for basic projects, but if feel it's time to step it up! During the pandemic I visited this shop with my friend who was looking for quality yarn at the time. Today I felt I'd go back and check out what they could offer for a burgeoning beginner/intermediate like me. The owner Marsha greeted me when I came in and was so helpful with all my questions (and I had a lot of questions!) she was very patient and kind. She helped me find a nice cotton yarn that wasn't too expensive since it's my first time doing a project like this one, and gave me some good tips on working with this kind of yarn. So also told me I can always come and sit at the large table with a project and sit and work on a project if I want too and time. So yes, this yarn may be a bit more expensive that you are used too if it's your first time at a proper Yarn shop, but these yarns are lovely and the qualities are beautiful. It's really a lovely little shop.

This is the kind of place that makes you want to linger, create, and connect. I can't wait to come back!

The down side of this is that the selection within each category isn't vast. There are just two or three racks of rockets, two or three shelves of Tamiya model airplane kits, and a few shelves of plastic model car kits. At the end of the plastic airplane kits were a few classic balsa plane kits, which I haven't seen in ages. I asked if they had something I didn't see on the shelves. The guy working there looked it up on the computer, and said no. But didn't offer to order it for me. Still I did get one thing I wanted.
