Customer Testimonials
“The Shop Owner is so welcoming and pleasant. I stopped in while I was visiting and I wish I had a yarn store like this at home. Wonderful selection of all kinds of yarns. My favorite is they even have Virginia made and Locally handcrafted hats and scarves for sale too. Just an all around adorable place that any yarn crafter should definitely stop in!"
"On my first visit, Rebecca was so generous with her time, expertise, listening to my concerns and printing me out a sock pattern that was appropriate for me. The customer service is phenomenal!"
"A great yarn shop! Terrific choices and variety of options from cotton to wool, silk and the special blends. Highly recommend these ladies for their knowledge and friendliness. They even wound my yarn for free!"
