Though this is a much smaller Michael’s than the ones I usually go to (in Northern VA) I did find what I was looking for (Classic Cotton in twine). Pricing info was missing for several yarns I browsed (no signage or stickers). I’m giving an extra star because of friendly staff member.

The store is fully stocked better than back home. I was able to pick up the missing yarn. My location didn't have back in New York.
