I like this small, friendly shop on Queen St. West. It carries certain yarns I covet that I haven't found anywhere else in Toronto, including Anzula's For Better or Worsted, Madelinetosh's Tosh Chunky and Pashmina, and Shibui's Silk Cloud. For this alone I rate it very highly, although there are times I don't find the colors I would like from among their necessarily limited selection. The Knit Cafe offers lessons, classes, patterns, and cafe snacks, too! Very helpful, pleasant staff.
