I visited the shop while on vacation a few days ago. They have many beautiful knitted samples on display for inspiration. The woman behind the counter was very welcoming and showed me many yarn options for my project. She also wound the yarn I bought which was a bonus. I'll definitely return next time I'm in town.

I stopped in with a vacation knitting emergency and the person who helped was so kind and helpful! I will definitely visit again when I'm in town!
