My initial query was answered quickly and once the logo was sent, I had a price quote right away. Because this was an unusual request, I went in with an example of what I thought I wanted. Lisa reviewed the pros and cons with me and came up with an alternate suggestion that worked beautifully! I'm so pleased with the sweatshirts!! The boys will be able to take a piece of their high school with them as they move on. Will definitely be back for any embroidery needs.

Ok... take 2: On my second call just now I spoke with woman who gave me the feeling that I was an annoyance rather than a valued potential customer. In fact, she even just said "I'm doing two things at once right now," and I asked if she'd rather call me back when it's a more convenient time. She just breathed heavy and muttered to herself while continuing to give me a quote. After she gave me the quote, I thanked her and she quickly (like, lightning speed) said, "Okaybye!" Weird. Think I'm looking elsewhere.

One of the most warm and welcoming yarn stores I've been to! Theresa, the owner, made me feel like…read moreI belonged from the moment I stepped in. This has happily become my local yarn store. It's a real community spot. The yarn selection ranges from standard go-tos like Berroco and Plymouth, to lovely stuff from Malabrigo and Juniper Moon Farm, to indie hand-dyes. The trend seems to be toward fashion colors and styles. I'm not exactly a fashionista myself, and I still find it easy to leave with creative choices. Especially because everyone there has been so willing to help me discover something I can't wait to knit or crochet up. Right now it's a super yummy pima cotton dk yarn I'm using for a shawl, and next up I have a cozy soft 100% recycled yarn for a cardigan. (And while prices at some LYSs can get scary sometimes, they seem to have really reasonable pricing.) PS: Parking in Union can be tough, but if the adjacent smaller lots are full, there's also a big municipal lot behind the Dollar Tree. (You can walk through for a shortcut! Buy yourself a soda!)

I am very happy I did! The Blue Purl is a beautiful shop. It looks like you're hanging out in someone's beautiful den (who just happens to LOVE knitting with TONS of yarn on shelves). Here's the brilliant part: The Blue Purl has several preset kits you can buy as gifts. Each one includes all the yarn you will need with a card or paper inside with color photos showing you what the end product will look like. This was *perfect*! I wound up finding a set and it made for a super easy purchase. One more fun thing: the shop owners will also wind the yarn for you at no additional cost. This is probably old hat for knitters but for me this was a very cool thing to witness so I had some fun too! I highly recommend The Blue Purl if you need gifts for a knitter or need supplies for yourself.
