Knitca

Love this little store. Beautifully set up and a very nice selection of colours and fibers. In addition, some good tools and accessories like the selection of buttons and wrap pins!
The owner is very knowledgeable and friendly. Parking is available either on the street or the library across the road.

BEWARE! People at the store were helpful, but they charged my card the minute my order was placed online (on a weekend, when they couldn’t be reached by phone), despite my explaining in the comments that I wanted to confirm the color before the order was completed. They did call to discuss the color, and even sent photos to help me make a decision (especially since shipping to California was VERY expensive). I got back to them — via e-​mail — that I appreciated their help (which I did) but that I was not going to complete the order and, instead, continue to look for a color closer to what I was after. I said that, if I decided to go with the alternate they suggested (different type of yarn and color), I would get back to them but, for now, I wanted to keep looking. They responded by saying to let them know, and how nice the other yarn was. Two weeks later, I get a message that they’ve shipped yarn to me! I immediately contacted them, saying I had canceled the order — that I had told them I was going to keep looking and had not accepted their suggestion, but their response was that it’d been two weeks so they automatically shipped. I’m guessing they’ve sent the yarn I initially chose online… I have no idea! They sent me no warning — no confirmation that they were going to ship… and that’s when I discovered they’d charged me for the order the minute it was placed — NOT when it was shipped like every other company I’ve done business with online. I’m EXTREMELY disappointed and will never do business with them again! Beware if you give them any credit card info! They’ll use it whether you want them to or not, and the minute they have it… even when nothing has been settled or even shipped yet! To return it, and pay shipping twice would cost more than the yarn so I’ve been FORCED to make this purchase, even though they led me to believe I would not be.

A very neat little shop, Lots of wool selection, not so much when it comes to synthetic fibers, but still there are choices. Prices are much better than the competition. I like that they have a catalogue, and lots of kits for beginners nicely packed (great gift idea). Overall the store is very cute, nice and tidy. The owner, Maryna, is a very welcoming and lovely host. Supporting the local business, I will continue shopping here.
