There is a great variety of yarn texture and colors. If you weave your own yarn, they have the supplies to do so. They do offer classes also.

Located in Frenchtown, I would recommend parking in the lot across the street next to the gas station. Street parking can be tricky especially on the weekend. Ater your visit, there are many other great shops & restaurants on Main St in Frenchtown

I know absolutely nothing about yarn or knitting. However, I needed to pick up a gift for a friend…read morewho is *very* much into it so I dropped by The Blue Purl while visiting Madison. I am very happy I did! The Blue Purl is a beautiful shop. It looks like you're hanging out in someone's beautiful den (who just happens to LOVE knitting with TONS of yarn on shelves). Here's the brilliant part: The Blue Purl has several preset kits you can buy as gifts. Each one includes all the yarn you will need with a card or paper inside with color photos showing you what the end product will look like. This was *perfect*! I wound up finding a set and it made for a super easy purchase. One more fun thing: the shop owners will also wind the yarn for you at no additional cost. This is probably old hat for knitters but for me this was a very cool thing to witness so I had some fun too! I highly recommend The Blue Purl if you need gifts for a knitter or need supplies for yourself.

Prices are reasonable and the advice is free! Can't wait to go back.

I'm only giving one star because I can't give it zero. I was told my service dog could not enter…read morethe store. If I was to order yarn and arrive for a pick up, he would not be allowed in. I informed the store this is again the ADA (Under the ADA, State and local governments, businesses, and nonprofit organizations that serve the public generally must allow service animals to accompany people with disabilities in all areas of the facility where the public is allowed to go.) The woman told me she knows nothing about that but he can't come in. I will shop somewhere else. I respectfully disagree with the owners response. I understand the store is closed due to Covid. Unfortunately the conversation did not go as you are reporting. I was specifically told that my dog was not allowed in the store. There was no mention of me not entering, only that my dog could not. There was no mention of curbside pickup.

One of the most warm and welcoming yarn stores I've been to! Theresa, the owner, made me feel like…read moreI belonged from the moment I stepped in. This has happily become my local yarn store. It's a real community spot. The yarn selection ranges from standard go-tos like Berroco and Plymouth, to lovely stuff from Malabrigo and Juniper Moon Farm, to indie hand-dyes. The trend seems to be toward fashion colors and styles. I'm not exactly a fashionista myself, and I still find it easy to leave with creative choices. Especially because everyone there has been so willing to help me discover something I can't wait to knit or crochet up. Right now it's a super yummy pima cotton dk yarn I'm using for a shawl, and next up I have a cozy soft 100% recycled yarn for a cardigan. (And while prices at some LYSs can get scary sometimes, they seem to have really reasonable pricing.) PS: Parking in Union can be tough, but if the adjacent smaller lots are full, there's also a big municipal lot behind the Dollar Tree. (You can walk through for a shortcut! Buy yourself a soda!)
