Sew What! CNY — Local services in City of Auburn

I did not know about Sew What until while looking at yarn in our local Wal-Mart, a lady who was walking down the same aisle as me, asked me if I ever went to Sew What. Well, she gave me the biggest scoop of my life and I have been a customer at Sew What ever since. They have an absolutely outstanding supply of everything a crocheter, knitter, seamstress, needlepointer and any fiber artist you can think of and name, could want. From acrylic yarn to wool yarn, from every kind of fabric you could ever want or need, zippers, buttons, needlepoint kits, felt, upholstery, patterns, crochet hooks and knitting needles, they have it. The volunteers at Sew What are knowledgeable, friendly and helpful, they're amazing. Sew What is the best thing that has happened to Auburn NY in years. A special thank you to this...

Selection will depend on what has been donated, but the prices are quite good on most things. While quilters will have the lion's share of the fun, there is also yarn, sewing patterns and notions, needlework projects, books and magazines, and far more than I can hope to list out.

$15 minimum for using a card.

The staff is mostly (all?) volunteers, and very cheerful and friendly. My hands got dirty rifling through things, but the vibe was more than worth it. Everyone seemed happy to be there, and I will be happy to visit again, once I get my current haul sorted and...

I admittedly biased since I volunteer here, but Sew What is a gem for all sewists and fiber artists. Stocked from donations, the selection is ever-changing and wide-ranging, including fabric, used machines, supplies, patterns, yarn, kits and more, all at great prices. Through donations, Sew What has kept 1000s of pounds of supplies out of the landfill.

Volunteers are fiber arts enthusiasts and often very accomplished and always willing to offer advice.

Sew What also offers classes and drop in crafting time to build community and encourage crafters...
