I found a real treasure when I visited this cute shop. I loved seeing all the local yarns. I can't wait to start the project I picked out. It was easily one of the friendliest places, and I'm excited to come back if I'm in the area again.

A beautiful, comfortable yarn shop for knitters, crocheters and adjacent handwork arts. As someone returning to knitting, Jordan quickly helped me find what I was looking for! This will be a regular stop for me as I travel to visit relatives. It's close to the 81, on the trailhead of the Virginia Creeper trail.
