Black Mountain Yarn Shop

Yarn shops are getting harder and harder to come by these days, so it’s great to see one so close to my family down in Black Mountain.
This shop (unlike others I’ve been to) is very community driven, and you’ll find a decent selection of local yarns, accessories, and tools from the Western NC/​Carolina community.
I’ve been to two other yarn shops in this region, and this one has a larger selection of «accessible» yarns as well as the FIRST in the area to get some of the designer brands.
Getting back to the community-​involvement. I stopped in for one sit and stitch and loved it. Everyone knows everyone, though my family down there isn’t as recognizable, lol. It’s a great place to learn about the area, as well as some local history or just getting your feet wet in the Carolina Mountains.
I can’t wait to get back on the East Coast, specifically Black Mountain. The sense of «home» in that area, and with the yarn community there, makes me miss it so much!

One of my favorite yarns shops! They have an incredible selection of yarns and patterns to choice from. Many knitted samples around the shop to give you inspiration. The owners and staff are friendly, knowledgable and truly make you feel welcome. Our knitting group drives up several times a year then lunches at the Veranda (the shop will call in to hold a table).
If your a knitter this shop will become a fav for you!

This place is extremely friendly. The staff is super helpful. My mom loves this shop and insisted on coming here a couple times in our brief stay in ashville. I would stop in on my way to the dripolater coffee shop just up the road to see how she was doing and I was instantly greeted with smiles from not only the staff but also the customers who were relaxing at a table working on projects. It seemed like everyone knew everyone. Friendliness is definitely contagious. Yarn isn’t really my thing but this place was awesome with projects of all kinds and if help was needed it was there for you. I even overheard the one worker encourage someone to come back simply to just work on her project with them. Definitely a place to revisit.
