The owner was a wealth of knowledge, and then some. The yarns, fibers, notions, tools; EVERYTHING one needs for knitting and crocheting. I wish I could have stayed the entire day. Serendipity is my new Happy Place. I'm looking forward to our next visit to the area in May!

It is beautifully laid out, mixing yarn and gifts, crammed in wall to wall in the old converted house. Upstairs is the serious yarn stash. Floor to (low attic eaves) ceiling and wall to wall yarn! They have an excellent selection, good prices for the quality of yarn they carry and a helpful, caring staff. We drove through Buena Vista this last weekend and the only reason I didn't fling myself from the vehicle (while Shawn was trying to fly by going twice the speed limit so that maybe if he drove by fast enough I may somehow forget it was there and drag him inside with me for 3 hours of yarn shopping) was because it was closed. If there were 10 stars, this place would get them all and more. If you are ever anywhere near Buena Vista, even if you don't do yarny crafts and you just like beautiful, hand-made gifts, do yourself a favor and stop by. And another update for the yarn I bought there - the brand the lady recommended, Alpaca With a Twist, is now my all-time favorite brand of alpaca yarn (and I even attended the Great Western Alpaca Show last year). She had excellent taste and great advice.

The gal behind the counter wasn't very talkative but was very kind when I asked some questions about the plants and pieces in the shop. Highly recommend you pop in while you're enjoying the downtown area of BV. Hopefully you're driving so you can stock up on some of their beautiful plants before you head out of town, and if your'e a local... lucky you!

I had the chance to spend a month in Salida this past August, and after driving up and down the…read moreArkansas and seeing anglers on the water I knew I had to try my hand at fly fishing. As someone who had never been fly fishing before I opted for a half day guided trip and stopped by the shop ahead of time to book, making my reservation about 5 days in advance. On the morning of my trip the team at Next Eddy got me set up with a fishing license, waders, and boots. My guide Sam did an awesome job explaining everything to me from the very start. My goal for the day was to learn as much as I could, so Sam broke down everything from the gear and rigging, to the bugs we were seeing on the water. I learned how to roll cast, and we hit several different runs at a spot in the canyon near town. Sam showed me how to find spots where fish might be, key principles like "foam is home," and I finally landed a brown trout near the end of our day! The whole experience was amazing and brought me a ton of joy to be out on the water in such a beautiful area. Before leaving town I ended up buying an Echo rod/reel setup from the shop and Sam helped me get set up with all the basics I'd need to go fishing on my own. My first time out I caught two small brown trouts, and I'll chalk it up to luck and the foundational skills I learned on my guided trip. This new sport has been opened up to me thanks to Sam and the team at The Next Eddy, and since that first guided trip I've been out fishing again 3 times including at some spots on the front range closer to home. I highly recommend this shop and their guiding services!

His spirits and enthusiasm kept us going and feeling excited the whole time!

I hung many beautiful pieces in here; one appears in photo 8 on Yelp (on the wall behind the mug). I have never received any income, not a single dollar, from the 10 works I have displayed in here. I have reached out several times to come and get my art, they have never once responded. These are terrible business owners, and terrible human beings who make their living off of stealing from artists.

On my most recent visit, I bought a painting and needed it shipped to Seattle. Sharon took down my info and said she'd make the arrangements with a local shipping company. When she investigated, she felt the price was too high so she created your own packaging and took my purchase to a spot in Denver (the next time she headed there), arranging for it to be shipped at one-third the original quote. So above and beyond! What's more, when I called to make the final payment arrangements, I immediately recognized Sharon's friendly voice from when I was in the store. It's because of Sharon that my partner commented, then and now, "I love Coloradans!" Yes, she's excellent PR for the entire state. Worth a visit. It's going to be a regular stop for me whenever I'm passing through.
