I like that someone described this as an oddity. It's dark, smelly, and just piles upon piles of…read morehuuuge cones of mystery yarn. No labels about content, no yardage info, even the gauge is iffy (because it's on a cone, so it's compressed). Just stuff. The guy buys mill ends and mistake things that bigger yarn manufacturers don't want - kinda like the TJ Maxx of yarn. So some of the stuff is really good; a lot of it is "wtf??" I know for sure that a bunch of the cones were Lion Brand homespun. Mostly you just have to rely on the man's memory & guess for what the fiber content & weight is. Since 95% of stuff is on cones, you won't find much worsted or heavier weights. But he does have a wall of hanks with really nice stuff - the actual stuff you'll find in a nice yarn shop and for the same price as everything else: $8 per pound for 100% wool; $4/lb for wool blends. You just gotta wash it a lot to get out that weird factory smell. Vanessa T's photos show everything perfectly. He also has a big supply of random vintage notions. Like elastic for sewing for 50 cents per package. Or some new-in-package Ace bandages from 30 years ago, if that's your bag.

Came back for a crochet 101 class taught by Venus. Great intro, and Venus was quite skilled at…read moremanaging 6 students all at different levels of experience & preparation. I can't say I can crochet a straight evenly sized chain yet, but I learned the chain stitch & single crochet. As a leftie, it often takes me longer to learn a craft because watching the instructor can be confusing - but Venus did a private demo for me (and for the one more advanced student she snuck in a lesson on crocheting in the round)! Great class, all around. Now I just have to learn to better control the tension in my yarn-releasing hand. I want to be ready for the new Crochet 102 class debuting in March.
