Fabulous quilt store in Anchorage! We stopped in Whittier and took a cruise excursion to…read moreAnchorage. I specifically chose this shop as a destination during our free time. The ladies in the store were so helpful and friendly! Terry checked me out and talked to my husband while I shopped. They have a fantastic amount of kits and fun fabrics for good prices. As well as some fun souvenirs to choose from. They have yarn too! I will definitely stop back in when I come back to town.

Business owners yelling "kill them all" to local Anchorage residents during an event downtown in…read moreFeb 2025. Unprofessional and full of hate. As someone born and raised in this city I would never support this business. You can find local crafts by Alaskan artists nearly EVERYWHERE downtown - the 5th ave mall, Kobuk Coffee, or for Fur Rondy specifics the Fur Rondy store has all the same pins and better selection. Sans the lack of ethics behind this business, I would not shop here due to the lack of value and mark up of local items you can find at other places for less. To support Alaskan artists during Fur Rondy, check out the craft bizarre and market at Dimond Center that starts during the last week in Feb. Support local businesses that actually support local artists and their communities equitably (aka do NOT shop at Sara's!)

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly and instantly felt welcome. The shop is absolutely charming -- there's so much to see that my eyes were having a feast! I ended up buying the cutest hand-beaded medicine pouch made of seal skin and an adorable pair of socks. Honestly, if I had more time, I could have spent hours exploring everything. If you're ever in the Anchorage area, I highly recommend stopping by. A true hidden gem!

If you're looking for cheap yarn, look elsewhere. They have premium quality stuff pretty much exclusively. I really enjoy the quirky stock they have.

It's really nice to have a quality yarn store in Eagle River, but holy moly it's expensive. Part…read moreof me is a complete yarn snob and then there is the part of me that is floored to have spent over $50 on two skeins of yarn. ..::cringe::.. By all means, they're beautiful, unique and made a lovely hat and fingerless gloves, but dang! I sure hope my son's girlfriend loves them! :D The nice lady working in there was very kind, available if needed and just allowed me to browse at my own pace. It's quite nice that they offer to roll the hank of yarn into a ball for you as well, which only takes a minute or two each. Just as the pandemic was hitting in the spring, they were getting ready to have classes for spinning yarn and unfortunately that has been postponed until all this ridiculousness is over. I'll probably go to a class or two, since I do have a wheel of my own. I merely dock a star for the price... by all means I will keep shopping there when I'm in need of fabulous yarn, but it's not for the random piece or practice project for sure. If you're looking for a specialty yarn for yourself or a gift, I highly recommend The Tangled Skein!

They have a sign saying they don't take trades in on Wednesday so I went in on Thursday & they said they were down for the entire next week. What should've been a 1 time task turned into a multi- week endeavor. They can't tell you what you recently bought (god forbid you're looking for the next in a series). They can't tell you at the counter to pay how much credit you have. Overall would not recommend as far as trying to trade things in. I also called and asked if they take puzzles (unopened) and they said yes, next time I came in I asked again and they said yes again. When I actually brought the puzzles in they said they don't take puzzles.
