Amazing knitting store!! So much variety, a super friendly atmosphere, and lots of project samples and kits and notions. I also loved the big friendly dog sleeping under the table. :D The owners (?) were helpful and knowledgeable, and it was clear this is a spot you can come to find community as well as yarn. My only issue was that they don't wind sale yarn, which felt a little sad and elitist (maybe put a limit on skeins wound if that's an issue?) but overall I would highly recommend this LYS.

I visited this store hoping to find wool to darn a sweater. I was unable to match my color, and didn't find a thin enough ply. I went to Michael's in Marina, and found embroidery thread that matched, for only a few dollars. By the way, they also have yarn for a fraction of the cost compared to the PG yarn store.

Very quaint, neighborly yarn shop. I believe they give lessons and have different groups that meet there regularly. Definitely recommend.

Less than halfway into a road trip and I was out of yarn. Que horrible! Monarch knitting to the rescue! I had visited their booth at the now defunct Stitches West and knew they would have high quality, luxury yarn by my favorite mills and dyers. A must visit shop if you are in the area.

My favorite yarn store. I drive to Monarch Knitting from Los Gatos because of the super helpful/knowledgeable sales staff, Connie always gets me out of a jam if I make a mistake, and they have a wonderful selection of high quality yarn and notions. Super friendly folks and super helpful for all things knitting and crochet. Worth the drive from the Peninsula or South Bay.

What a delightful shop! The selection was fabulous, the staff was friendly and the table was bustling with knitters working their creative magic. A gem of a yarn shop and worth setting aside plenty of time to visit if you’re in the area!

My third trip to the store, and this was my most complicated set of questions. So helpful!

A beautiful shop of top end yarns and the tools a knitter/crocheter could want. They will also order and ship to your home. A knit table in the back if you want to gather and spots around the shop for a lone knitter to pause and consider their new acquisitions. Highly recommend!

Absolutely beautiful store in their new location. Bright and spacious. I was just there, however; and completely ignored. Three people helping check out(?) two women at the register and not a hello when I walked in. Not a big deal but one does like to be acknowledged. Left without a purchase.

I revently returned to this store after many years in a visit from Los Angeles. I love the selection of beautiful yarns, accessories and lots. Very friendly and helpful service. Will be back when I next return to visit Monterey.

Monarch knitting has an extensive assortment of yarn with an attractive atmosphere. Comfortable chars and a table that beckons to knitters. The staff is friendly and helpful. If you frequent the store you get points for purchases that can be redeemed for merchandise.
