    Lots of yarn options
    Adrienne P.

    My Mom was in yarn heaven. Huge selection of yarn and nice patterns. Prices are reasonable. In the back room, they also have discounted items. The two ladies working there were very nice and helpful. They have a loyalty program which you can sign up for when you pay. There is ample parking and it's easy to find using google maps.

    The Yarn: This is a great yarn shop that offers yarn in all price ranges. So, you don't have to spend $30 per skein. Customer Service: The owner is sooo pleasant and helpful. Classes: I took my first knitting class here (I crochet), and the instructor, Leslie Ann is an amazing teacher !

    I cut the bottom off my sweater (I followed a YouTube tutorial- don't judge)

    Great covid precautions! Felt very safe with the customer limit, hand sanitizer, and mask rules. I came here for the first time recently because I needed help after a knitting emergency, (before and afters attached). Let me just say, the woman who helped me saved my project. I've been working on this sweater since October trying to get it done for Christmas and right when I thought I was finished, I cut the bottom in an attempt to give it more structure. I thought I destroyed it. Thankfully, the very kind lady showed me my project was still salvageable and how to fix the literal hatchet job I did to it. While I was there I also got a pair of stainless steel sock blocks for less than $18 (don't remember the exact price), on amazon the same product cost $20 plus shipping. Great service, great help, great prices! Will definitely be a loyal customer from here on out!

Staff are knowledgeable and quickly help you find what you need. Best of all, they have wonderful recommendations (if you ask) for other local shops and cafes to visit - making the visit even better.

You know that feeling when you walk into a store and feel like you are a burden to the staff? Like you aren't wanted there and/or are a nuisance? Well, that is the feeling I had from the very moment I stepped in. And, let me tell you - there are a number of similar reviews from other customers experiencing the same thing. So, the owner needs to learn about customer service, then hire the right folks and train them properly. I'm sure the owner will post a response that defends the awful staff and makes silly excuses- so I'm waiting for that :) I will never spend a penny here and would not recommend wasting any time here. Unless, of course, you love the hype of this place and want to get cute little photos to post on social media. Then, maybe this is your place!

Located in Fort Washington, Maryland, we are a Black-owned business. Our goal is create a thriving stitching community by offering a range of knitting and crochet products and classes. Owner Terri J. Haynes is also the owner of AT Haynes House Yarns, a board member of Project Knitwell, a writer, wife and mom. She loves people and can't wait to meet you.

I didn't want to go somewhere I'd be looked at suspect or like a unicorn, so I searched for a Black-owned yarn shop. To my surprise, Gathering Yarns was just 25 minutes from DC and worth the drive. The yarn shop is a standard storefront in a strip mall, so it was both easy and difficult to find at the same time. You can't miss the mall itself, but you'll have to scan to notice the store. The interior is cute with a modest selection of yarn, needles, and other accessories. The skein I bought was reasonably priced, but since I'm a new knitter, relative value is still unclear. I took the beginner knitting class and the instructors were great. They give you one-on-one attention and focus on your learning style and your strengths. I learned the basics and will definitely be going back for more lessons. All-in-all I really dig this place and will definitely be back.

In an effort to make friends and get…read moreout the house when I knew I would not be working for a while I decided to look for classes on groupon. For the insanely cheap price of $130 dollars or so i got to have two official knitting lessons and as much sit and knit as I could possibly want. I started in September when classes started again after the summer and pretty much went to every sit and knit I was entitled too go to every sat and sun from then untill I left DC to move to Cali in June 2014. I miss sit and knit and the expertise and friendships I made at this class. I not only got my monies worth but gained even more in friendship and life long skills. I made fingerless gloves, scarves (5 in total) a bear and am now working on a bedside mat. I believe some people have had some issues below which quite frankly leave me perplexed - How can something be a scam if you get your money back from groupon? This is a one woman show, which pretty much means if something comes up then things might not happen. Thats just the way it is when you run a small business by yourself. The number of times I witnessed people coming to class not reading what they needed to bring or where they needed to meet were so numerous and somehow this was never their fault. Take responsibility for yourselves please people. You are an adult!

I'm a self-taught knitter using books and the Internet. When I went to class explain what I want to do to Terri, and she helped me and I have been making much more complicated patterns since then. I go every Sunday when I can and I always have a great time & I met a great group of women in the process. I can't wait for the next project. Terri was very patient with my questions, sometimes the same one multiple times. If you forget your stitch markers, don't worry someone will have them.
