The Knitting Tree has been THE yarn place on Monroe Street for many years. My daughter has gone there many times for help with her knitting projects over the years and the people there have always been friendly, helpful, patient and understanding with her. They have a great selection of yarn and loads of experience. If you need yarn or help with your knitting, this is your place.
Local tip: since it's street parking only, try to avoid going there during the evening rush hour as there's no parking on that side of Monroe St. then.
