Visited for the first time this weekend, and everyone was amazingly helpful! Even helped me learn how to wind my own yarn ball. Thanks!

Gather Here is one of my favorite yarn and fabric stores anywhere. If they don’t have what I need for a project (which is rare), they have helped me figure out different ways to approach it. It’s a true community space. It took a lot of hard work to build that, and it shows.

I came in on a busy Saturday asking for help finding details of an old order. The order was difficult to track down because I hadn't made an account, but the staff went above and beyond to help me out, and they found it! They were very kind even though my request was a bit ridiculous. Very much recommended.
