Jennbersold, the yarn store I go to more frequently is the Woolie Ewe. It's in Plano. I like it better than Yarn & Stitches.

And there is a small group of us that meet at the Starbucks at Sandy Lake and I-35 on Thursday nights. We havn't met in awhile, but plan to tomorrow (March 12) around 6pm. Come if you can, it would be great to meet you.

Thank you! I will have to check out the Woolie Ewe. I liked Yarn & Stitches ok, but they didnt have the selection I became spoiled with in Santa Fe. lol.

I live about 15 miles east of Denton. I'm not a fan of the Woolie Ewe.
I shop and hang out at Delightful Hands in downtown Celina. The shop also has scrapbooking/card making supplies.
Oh, and the first Friday of the month the shop stays open until about midnight and is filled with knitters and scrapbookers.

I'm not familiar with the area at all. Is that far from lewisville?

It's about ten miles north of Frisco off of Preston Rd.
Or you can take the tollway there. The tollway ends a few miles away from Celina.

Hi, I live in Coppell. I learned to crochet when I was young. I didn't learn to knit until I was an adult. I love it best, but do both, when
making items for charity. I love this website. It is a great place
for instruction, as well as meeting nice people.

I'm from Ft Worth too, born & raised there. I'm about an hour away from Abilene & oh how I wish there was a yarn shop there! I don't buy the nicer yarns there, but I love the accessories & pattern books that can't be found in the larger craft stores.

Welcome to the group,
