I have been knitting and crocheting for a long time, and I absolutely love supporting small local yarn shops. I am however, quite young for the typical knitter, and I probably don't come across as experienced at first glance. I came into this store to purchase some hanks for a fair isle sweater im designing. I didn't know what colors I needed yet, and I just wanted to see what was in stock.
I felt like when I came into the store I wasn't treated with the most kindness. I know, I look young and inexperienced, but I knew I had to place a pretty big order. I felt bad talking to the staff and asking questions, and I could tell there was some possible annoyance with my order.
With the yarn hanks, I do not have the supplies at home to wind it myself. I asked the lady working if it would be ok if they did it for me, and I could tell they were either very overwhelmed or annoyed. The store was not busy. I apologized and said I was sorry for my order, and left feeling like I was a bother to the staff. I still spent a lot of money, but felt like I annoyed the team by asking for my yarn to be wound up.
Overall this place was beautiful, and I will be back to get more yarn. Thank you for the beautiful materials, and to the staff...

Very upset but went to another shop and the lady there was very sweet and helped me get this scarf ready to give my daughter as a...
Read moreI had a Wonderful Experience at Bazaar Girls knitting shop in Port Townsend! The co-owner Keri, helped me with a large blanket I was working on where a stitch had fallen off several rows behind where I was working on straight needles.
She spent a good deal of time pulling out several rows to correct & then put me in circular needles-which she just gave me to finish my blanket.
She went above & beyond to help me, was kind, generous with her time incredibly helpful and provided excellent instructions to help prevent my mishap from happening again!
This is the only knitting store I will ever go to in Port...
