This store may not have a wide range of different exotic types of yarn, but there is always 'enough' yarn there. That is to say that if you're knitting a big project like a sweater or blanket there's no annoying "but we can order it for you" situation; the amount you need is always IN THE STORE. Instant gratification. To me, that's just an excellent way to do business.

(making harry potter house scarves for all my family members for yule) Every time I thought I had found a place I would get to the site and they would have a few, very few colors in Cascade 220.
