My favorite yarn shop closed a couple of years ago and so I had been buying yarn online. I was in a bind and needed some to knit up a weekend project for my coworker's baby and found Fiberwood on Yelp. It's in a nice location in 'Tosa in a residential area so it's not very crowded and you should have no trouble finding parking, especially since they are only open during the day. I walked in and browsed around there were 3-4 other people in there receiving help with projects. The first thing I noticed is that there weren't that many yarns, but the yarns they do carry were a decent quality. Cascade 220 in a variety of colors, ECO Wool, Malabrigo....I was happy with the color selection of the Cascade 220s, but the colors I was interested in did not have enough skeins for me to complete the project. After I browsed, I was greeted by a person I believe to be the owner. I showed her the pattern for the hooded baby wrap and that I was looking for a yarn and open to restrictions as long as it was a natural fiber. We looked at a few options and I eventually settled on the Malabrigo Mecha super wash in Dewberry at $15.95 each. If you need needles, books, or patterns, she has that as well. I'm not sure what brand of needles (I'm an Addi Turbo fan), but I did see she had them on the wall. They accept cash, Visa and MasterCard and she bagged the yarn for me. I really appreciated her help and I would definitely go back if I needed certain yarns. I wish I could have given four stars, but I had to take off work to go there because of the hours and there were quantity shortages for all of the yarn colors I was interested in the Cascade 220. This would be limiting for larger projects like blankets or sweaters, but it is a smaller shop less targeted towards yarn, so I understand.

Sociologically speaking, knitting people are a subculture, one that places a high value on sharing, being supportive, helpful, patient, and respectful, especially to new knitters. The workers are especially attentive to customers who want to repair or replicate something a grandmother knit. Pretty divergent from contemporary mainstream American society. I just wish they served espresso.

I really love the colors! The items were around $60 so you can judge for yourself. I am unsure if there are Wisconsinites who make yarn varieties but I think a wall of local yarn would be a great addition to the store.

The store is super full though and has excess junk in the back that is visible. Great customer service. Keith really knows his beads and can make whatever you request. We ultimately purchased four bracelets and some earrings that ended up costing $150. I'd say that was pretty pricey honestly. I mean the beads were nice, but not like some expensive/rare stones. I understand part of the charge is labor, but not sure I'd say it's worth that price. Not to mention, one of the bracelets broke after only wearing it once so we need to return to have it repaired-which is inconvenient since we live in Chicago. So...good place to visit...proceed with caution in terms of your purchase.

(I think it didn't make it on the truck because they forgot to order it. )Obviously, this is so unprofessional it's laughable. I needed the painting framed this weekend and now I'm going to have to find another frame store.

Value: +++++ Stock: +++++…read moreVariety: +++++ Overall service summary: ++++ I am not this crafty person more because I have other priorities. My wife just loves Hobby Lobby and was so excited to have this location open a few years back. So with that being said I or we love this place and I will write this review to include thoughts from my wife. They are much larger and have a larger inventory than competitor Michael's. The store is well planned and laid out by "crafts" or needs. Always plenty of inventory on the shelf. And from my point of view every type of craft or hobby imaginable besides electrical or RC type hobby. So this is aimed at more of the crafts. My youngest son is in cub scouts and entered the pinewood derby race (2nd time) and I had gone to Elliot's Ace hardware last year for supplies and this year to a Michael's only to need more glue later in and decided to come here. Well now I found out they have a very extensive section for pinewood derby and no need to drive 20 minutes further than here. I also like the corporate philosophy of treating their employees with Christian values and the store hours and holidays reflect that. You sure don't find that too often in today's political correctness. I believe their prices are very reasonable too. Always clean and organized. The aisles are not too small and cramped with stock. So with all of this love, why 4 stars? The overall service brings the rating down to 4 stars. Just okay. Always need to search around for help and usually one checkout is open. Occasionally two. During holidays that's when you feel the wait is excessive. But they probably manage their cost with the labor really well and pass that savings down to the consumer so if I could give them 4.5 stars I would. To me, no need to go anywhere else for your craft needs.

The line kept growing and at 28 degrees we were freezing, but there was no way we were giving up our spot. Thankfully, the owner opened a little early and everything was very well organized. They limited purchases to two per person, and since we were third in line, we had time to pick exactly what we wanted. Such kind owners and a great experience overall. We'll definitely be back to explore the rest of the store.
