Yarns Ewe'll Love is a fabulous yarn shop that opened September 12, 2018! It is located in the same…read morespot that was previously occupied by Yarn Forward, which closed over the summer (the owners of Yarn Fwd retired, and closed both this shop and the one on Bank St.) Louise, who managed the Kanata shop since its inception 20+ years ago, is the new owner and manager of Yarns Ewe'll Love. It's fresh and clean! I didn't realize the store needed a makeover, but it's really refreshing! It smells good, and looks great! They sell a wide variety of yarns, with more upscale offerings. I purchased a skein of "Eat Your Peas Louise!" just for fun!!! Well done, congratulations, and good luck! Welcome to the block! I'm so glad to still have a yarn shop in Ottawa's true west end!!

Ok - finally! I found a gorgeous new-ish local yarn shop (LYS) close to home!! Sassy Yarns has only…read morebeen in this location in Brockville since August this year (2022). It's fairly big, and with those windows in front it's also bright! With an array of yarns to choose from hanging along the walls, there is plenty of inspiration here. This shop caters to knitters, crocheters, and spinners - with fibre and needles for all your needs! Spinning wheels too!! I can't wait to start - and finish, and wear! - the socks from yarn I purchased here! Open space in the centre of the shop provides comfy seating, so that you can try out your new purchases. Check store hours before going; they are somewhat irregular.

Overall, I was disappointed in this shop, because I was looking for yarn. To find the yarn you have…read moreto go upstairs, and you'll find some, in a small room. However, they have a nice variety of ready-made items, and some cute and colourful home decor items. To be fair, they have a farm, and they're busy with that. But this shop is full of items, especially unique pieces of clothing. Mug I go back, it'll be with a better perspective of what they offer. Maybe the clerk was tired? Not very warm and welcoming. There were quite a few patrons in hill I was there. I did manage to find a colourful Hank of sock yarn, so at least I didn't come out empty handed. In the end, I'm not sore it was one of their own products!

It's been over 10 years since I reviewed this shop. It has changed a lot, although some things have…read morestayed the same: they still sell a variety of different clothes for men and women - tops, bottoms, and footwear (some fabulous sheepskin slippers!) They also sell sheepskin rugs and blankets, good quality leather belts, cowboy hats, and so much more! There's a tackle shop in the back that's even bigger, which caters to horse lovers, offering saddles, bells on a leather strap, and other hardware. It's an interesting array. What has changed is the wool shop; the person running it before dwindled it down in preparation for retiring. However, the public's interest in knitting has not dwindled! Thankfully, someone took over the management of the yarn shop within this store and expanded it greatly.! They now offer a good selection of Briggs & Little wool, a LOT of different sock yarns, roving in different colours, and needles. There might have been some acrylic, and there definitely was some cotton. I've been looking for enough denim blue wool to make a sweater for myself, and have not been able to find enough yarn elsewhere to achieve this. I did find it here (barely, to be honest!) I've got no excuse, now! I must knit!! Lucky for me there's bad weather on the way; plenty of time to get to it. The staff were helpful and knowledgeable. The yarn was a good price. And I found a belt that fit! It was a good day. It was worth the drive to Carleton Place!!

Wow! What took me so long to come in here? Then when I do, it's mere moments before closing! On the…read moreother hand, maybe that's a good thing, as I can then only do so much damage to the wallet! I can understand why quilters get such a stash too... very tempting, although I don't sew much. This shop has a section for yarn, but the quilting and sewing side has more variety in it. I was tempted by a lovely apron, which is funny because I don't ever wear one! Maybe I would though... if it looked like this, and if I made it myself! They offer some upscale yarns in here that were heaven to sink my hands into. I managed to walk away with "only" 2 skeins, which will be for a project for me; I'm thinking mittens, but we shall see. I recently purchased the new knitting book called "Saltwater Mittens", which contains patterns that are supposed to represent Newfoundland, and I'm just itching to get going on a few of these patterns! They have a knit-night on Wednesday evenings from 5:00 to 8:00. Now that it's on my radar, I will keep this in mind so that I can spend more time looking around. And oh yeah, knitting! LOL I will definitely be back.

From the owner: We supply products and classes to makers of textile arts. We offer fabric, yarns, Bernina Sewing…read moremachines, threads, and other sewing/quilting notions. In our yarn area we feature Canadian Hand Dyers in a variety of yarn bases and weights. We have dyers represented from Western Canada, Ontario, Quebec and the Maritimes. We still support the quilters among you with fabrics, thread, notions, patterns, classes and Bernina sewing machine sales and service. Longarm quilting services are available from “The English Rose”. What’s new you say? If you are into knitting/crochet, you will be pleased to know that we now carry beautiful materials, patterns, notions and classes for you as well! New stock is arriving daily so check back often.

Three and a half stars, if I could, or maybe 4-stars if just for enthusiasm! But overall, the store…read moreis smaller and darker than I thought it would be. The staff is knowledgeable, and very helpful, and obviously knows their way around with needle and thread. I had heard of this place by word of mouth, over the years, through Knitting Guild members and other knitty and crafty friends, and more recently, they've joined up with the Guild to offers a bit of a discount if you're a Guild member (terrific! Every little bit helps!!) between what I've heard and recent advertising on Facebook, I really wanted to see what's up in here. It's in the same building as the coffee shop (Bridgehead), but for some reason we passed it the first time we drove by, and eventually parked on a side street. There is meter parking in front of the shop, with a two hour max. We were greeted by a friendly store clerk, who answered our questions, and pointed us in the direction of the buttons, which was the main reason I wanted to visit the shop. The clerk told us that the "wall of buttons" I had been told about had been reconfigured to let more light into the shop, and as a result you could see the buttons better (I can vouch this is true). We looked around at the materials for ideas, but I settled on a few buttons for my collection. We found some marvellous moose impressions on what may or may not be pewter. Whatever... I love moose! Be warned, though: the buttons were not cheap! I picked up 12 buttons for $24.87. But they did offer a section of discount cuttings at $2 each, that would no doubt entice the quilters among us! One last note, before closing my review: the clerk, it turns out, also sews his own clothes, and advised us that the also offer sewing classes. As you walk in the store, the "shop" part is to the left; just to the right is a little boutique or studio, with some clothes hanging on a rack and a fitting room - but these are not your typical "off the rack", these items were sewn in the back third of the space, where I gather you might take the sewing classes. I will bear that in mind, as I would actually like to sew more than I do. Look out, though! I can see how this might be another stash building experience! I really don't need another hobby, as much as I need projects than can be finished. Maybe in my retirement...?

Maybe I am new to yelp (well, i am not but i just never paid attention i guess), but i was shocked…read morewhen I saw that this little gem of a store only had 3/5 stars according to Yelp! There are a few more reviews that are not showing up util you click on "other reviews" and they are all 5/5... The one 3/5 star review was very positive in my eyes.. but thats for another debate. This store is, to me, 5 stars all around! I am an occasional sewer and have always turned to Darrell Thomas Textiles for all of my sewing needs. The owner and staff have been amazing and extremely helpful in all of my sewing projects, in finding the right fabric or in troubleshooting what I am doing wrong. I have taken a few classes offered by Darrel Thomas Textiles before the pandemic and had follow-up questions after class when doing my home projects... the team at the store were always helpful, assisted in identifying the issue and what I needed to do to solve them and make my project 100% better - your projects dont look homemade but look professional, couldnt be more happy! The collection of product is phenomenal!! Quality is definitely something Darrell Thomas Textiles prides themselves with and it shows... I recently discovered their knits collections to make t-shirts and casual-wear and I am paradise! I have tried other fabric stores in the region, small independents ones and did not find they compared with Darrell Thomas Textiles, either from a selection or quality perspective. I have found myself returning times and again to this little gem and never have been disappointed. I have also been ordering fabric and patterns during the pandemic and the store has provided delivery services (they have recently moved from their little Italy location and delivery has made it easier to get my sewing needs fix), and curb-side pickup! If your subscribe to their newsletter, the owner often sends discount codes and specials which makes the product a steal! 100% recommended to new and seasoned sewers
