All merchandise was organized really well and by yarn brand. I also noticed some cross stitch and embroidery kits. There was also a display of new DMC thread colors, as well as knitting needles, crochet hooks, and notions. There was a small group of people knitting while I was there shopping. I learned that there is a group that meets weekly to work on their projects. Very friendly environment! I'll stop in again and shop when in the area. Prices were good for the excellent quality of the yarns!

They were very accommodating and had the yarn I needed, and so much more that I would have liked to buy. They offer loads of patterns and have quite a few beautiful pieces on display. This shop is a little reminiscent of Mary's Yarns in Unionville, which - sadly - closed a few years ago. I will have to shop here as often as I can to support them and my hobby. Furthermore they will be in Toronto at the end of April for the Knitter's Frolic.

I don't normally post this sort of thing but I am hoping that by doing so I might bring some…read moreawareness and show support for other service dog handlers who experience the same thing. This past Thursday I was having a rough day, but decided an outing might help. It took me all day but I gathered my strength and headed to the yarn shop in Waterloo. As always I had Erie with me and when I got to the shop there was a note in the window saying there is a dog in the shop. When I headed in the lady saw my dog and took hers to the back saying it gets along with people but not with other dogs. The other dog was barking and whining but there was really nothing I could do about that so we continued on. Maybe the lady thought I was taking too long or I wasn't going to buy anything and was just trying to get out of the rain, I don't know. But she came around the corner and said, "your dog is upsetting my dog and I'm busy and have things to do, so can you tie your dog up outside please?" I explained that she is my service dog and she has to stay with me, at which point she said, "well then you will have to leave!" I could have argued with her. I could've told her it was like asking someone to leave because their wheelchair was taking up too much space or telling someone with oxygen that they couldn't come in because there were lit candles. My dog is my medical equipment just like a wheelchair or oxygen. But I didn't. I just left. It had taken all of my energy and strength to get there I didn't have any left to argue. By the time I made it across the street to a little mall I was shaking and sobbing uncontrollably. I hadn't done anything wrong and neither had my dog but she told us to leave! I want to be like everyone else and do the same things in the same manner but I can't. Situations like these make a bad day worse and show the ignorance of others. As always we will continue to be positive and carry on without letting this bother us. For other handlers, please know we understand and experience the same. For others, please remember you don't know what people are going through. Please be respectful. #servicedog #doberman #medicalalertdog

I found Michigan Fine Yarns when looking for a place to supplement the soon to be closed Joann's. Someone recommended this on an online knitting forum and I took a risk. They have a very easy to navigate website with a ton of offerings in any color, thickness, weight, and material you could image. The only downside to being an online customer is that we cannot feel the yarn. However, I received a call once when purchasing the pink yarn where they inquired as to what I was making because there were two lots with different dyes used so there was a slight color difference. I was taken aback by how thorough their customer service was and how thoughtful that interaction was! I've attached photos of some projects that I have completed (I'm new to knitting so any mistakes are truly my own and not due to the yarn). I will continue to purchase from Michigan Fine Yarns as they have a range of yarns that can fit any budget. I like to work with the 100% Peruvian wool from Cascade yarns the most and my local yarn stores don't have them in the quantity that I need. I cannot wait until life brings me to Ann Arbor and I can visit this store in person! I might feel like I've died and gone to Heaven.

The workers are very kind and helpful. I was quickly assisted in finding the yarn and tools I needed for a project. I was convinced to give metal knitting needles a try (I've only used wood so far) and I've been loving it! I got all my questions asked and more :) Being a knitting store, the price of items are a bit spendy, but that's also because the quality is great. The store sources beautiful yarns which comes at a cost, but you know what you're getting is great. They are also able to purchase print your patterns if they are on Ravelry (maybe other sites as well). Additionally, it's so important to support local stores like Ewe-nique Knits, so please stop by!
