Im looking to not break the bank on yarn.

Can anyone recommend a good knitting store in SF?

Thanks.

  • I've never seen one that didn't have high prices. Some of them have yarn you can't get anywhere else (like Art Fibers), but I'm personally not willing to pay the extra-high prices.

    I go to my LYS (Yarn Boutique in Lafayette) whenever possible. I highly recommend it. She's even within walking distance from the BART station, so you can BART up there if you have the time.
  • Hi, D -- this was posted recently on Ravelry:

    So, right by ODC Dance on Shotwell and 17th St. There’s a nifty little yarn display in the window. A buddy of mine said that she went in and browsed and it looked lovely. She’s a non-knitter and got excited.

    Does anyone know anything about the place? It’s spitting distance from my house so I’ll be by. It wasn’t open when I swung by, though. I didn’t see a name or hours posted…

    noone's been in it yet (or posted that they have). But let us know!
