I went in looking for small-diameter circular needles for socks to finish a rush gift project. the store owner was very helpful and recommended a new brand --LYKKE driftwood needles, in 9 inch diameter. just perfect for socks and mittens ! I'd been using 12 inch diameter, a little large for my projects, and had tried 5 in diameters -- too small . don't waste your money on amazon, ordering chinese junk 5 "" needles. come to Oakmont yarn where they'll know exactly the right needles you need. (I've been knitting for decades. And I never knew there are 9 inch circular needles. . . ) read more

Cozy yarn store which had a lot of knitting books. The staff person was very friendly.

Friendly staff, great selection! Clean and organized, very calm & welcoming environment.

Stopped in here today to check out what they had. The selection and quality of the yarn is wonderful. They sell knitting needles, yarn bowls, pattern books and more. They also offer knitting classes every Saturday at 10:30am! The ladies who work there are passionate about this craft, are extremely kind and helpful. The store is adorable and has a very cozy feel. It is nice to find a local yarn store with so much to offer. read more

It took me 2 years of living nearby to realize that I even had a LYS! I'm so happy I found it too! Everyone here is incredibly friendly and helpful! I always have a great experience and their yarn selection is awesome as well. Definitely worth visiting. read more

Granted, I don't know enough about yarn to evaluate this store based on its selection, but I'll tell you what I do know: I've been in quite a few yarn stores, some small, some big, and I've had my share of experiences. Some yarn stores feel like private clubs, where staff subtly let me know that by browsing their wares I'm interrupting their knitting projects. Some yarn stores only have the most expensive, exclusive yarns available. Yarns Unlimited isn't either. For one, I received tremendously good advice on picking out yarn for a scarf, and the salesperson even advised me away from some of their more expensive yarns, suggesting that they weren't appropriate for what I wanted. Also, while I was there, a customer came in for some help with a project, and the assistance was provided free of charge. Yarns Unlimited strikes me as exactly the kind of place that builds business through loyalty, and if I lived in the area I'd go back there often. As it was, I made a sizable purchase. read more
