There are closer yarn shops to where I live, but no shop owner has made me feel more at home than Ms. Bette. Armed with years of knitting knowledge, Bette will help you find the perfect yarn and supplies for all your projects. Don’t let the small amount of yarn on display fool you. She has a small showroom for her yarn, so she displays one skein of each color of the yarn she has in stock, and then will go pull more for you when you’ve decided how much you need. She also has needles, hooks, notions, and books for sale. If you are visiting yarn stores in the New Orleans area, don’t miss this one!

If you are into needlecrafts, and especially knitting, this is the place to get your supplies. Tucked in the Bywater neighborhood, you will find specialty yarns, gorgeous needles and everything that will spur you to finish that project that you’ve been working on. Worth the trip out. Call ahead, as her hours are a bit sporadic.
