Either about food or technique in the kitchen! This place was a blast I would def recommend for team building or date nights or even as a family activity. Claire was our host and she was AMAZING, we got to do all the fun stuff and she was there to clear and clean our dishes, provide us with tools and ingredients PLUS while we were eating she boxed up our leftovers (yes, you will definitely have leftovers)!!! Great experience, if you are interested in taking a cooking class this is definitely the place to do it! They can and will curate the menu to meet the needs of food allergies, diets and preferences. Appetizer - crab rangoons/ cream cheese wontons Meal - Pad Thai Dessert - Coconut sticky rice w/ mangoes on top Thanks for having us, hoping we get to come back again someday soon!

The food we made during their chicken piccata class came out deliciously and Tashi was very patient and thorough in checking in and making sure that our food was coming out well throughout the process. Inside has a nice dining table/lounge area upon first entering with a full bar, coffee station, and photo booth. Behind the curtain lays out the actual cooking stations with just about every gadget you could need to cook an amazing dish. The setting and size felt perfect to allow my partner and I feel comfortable in our own space while also allowing intimacy with the space between the other learners and the chef. I would 100% recommend this spot if you are interested at all in taking a cooking class or are just looking for a fun way to spend a date night.

I have been trying to find someone to do the repair and have no luck. Finally I decided to look up knitting shops on Yelp, hoping someone will be able to help. I called Nirto Knitters, and a lady picked up the phone quickly. She was upbeat, friendly and sympathetic. She explained almost no one would do the repair because it always looked "not great" (kinda like a thick patch). However, she recommended the "needle felting" method. I quickly googled it and it looked doable for small holes! Oh I really hope it will works! For this experience, I recommend NItro Knitters for anyone who need knitting guidance.

I was tasked with renewing an old sidewalk level sign at our church. It used to be back-lit but…read morethe front had long ago been replaced with a piece of plywood. After calling many plexiglass suppliers in the area - Kate and Richard at Multicraft were kind enough to recommend using polycarbonate instead of acrylic for this particular (accessible) application due to it's better durability. In addition, their service and pricing were MUCH better than competitive! I HIGHLY recommend these folks! BTW: Their cutting machines are PRECISE - - down to 1/16" (maybe Better IDK) but, you specify EXACTLY the size you need - That's what you get!

The first moment we walked into Unwind, it felt like home. As a 20+ year knitter/crocheter, I never…read morereally *need* more yarn or tools, with some limited exceptions, but it's always fun to take a gander. Spoiler alert (not to other yarnies): I have made several purchases in the last couple of weeks. My hot‍ take on Unwind: * Wide variety of yummy yarns in various fibers and price points * Great selection of knitting/crocheting tools and notions * Flawless vibes- friendly, warm, supportive, fun shop folks * Fairly-priced, helpful, fun, supportive class opportunities * Lovely fiber arts community If you have time and the inclination, read on for further details. I knew immediately I wasn't going to leave empty-handed. There's a fabulous selection of yummy yarns here, in a variety of fibers (natural and acrylic), at a wide range of prices, which is wholly refreshing! I've been to some yarn shops where they tout that they only carry "natural fibers." While I enjoy knitting and crocheting with natural fibers (hello, alpaca!), sometimes I need an acrylic or acrylic blend for a project that doesn't require me to cash out my 401K (grateful to have one) or need the acrylic boost for care-ability. I love creating gifts for cherished peeps, but we yarnies know there are some recipients you know won't remember to hand wash an item. (Sometimes it's me!) They have a marvelous selection of hooks and needles, accessories, notions, and other yarnie implements. I was giddy to find they have one of my favorite knitting needle brands, KnitPro. I don't care how many knitting needles or interchangeables I have; I can always use another. I'm also excited that they have KnitPro crochet hooks! I bought one in one of my most used hook sizes to give it a whirl. Unwind is full of incredibly friendly and helpful folks. Heather and Anne gave us an extremely warm welcome the first time we visited. Heather invited us to the bi-monthly Tuesday Social Stitch, where folks come together and knit or crochet in the company of other fiber crafters. We had a great time meeting other knitters and crocheters the following Tuesday. I also signed us up for a knitting class. Without getting too kniterdy™, there are two main styles of knitting, English (aka "throwing") and Continental (aka "picking"). I am a self-taught knitter from 20 years ago, using the early days of video tutorials, which demonstrated knitting in the English style. I've always wanted to learn Continental, but since I had strong muscle memory, it was hard to switch over for good and I always reverted to my comfort zone, English style. I saw a Continental knitting class offered by Anne and registered my daughter and me. We had the BEST time learning from Anne. She was fun, engaging, and supportive. We also met a whole other cohort of lovely people that made the class even more engaging. I've been to many yarn shops in 20 years and I can say without hestitation that Unwind is my favorite, by far!
