This little gem is tucked off Winslow Way, the main drag through downtown Bainbridge. It's on Madrone, just behind Blackbird Bakery. The owners, Kit and John are great. They've have created a welcoming space for knitters, crocheters, stitchers, tea-drinkers, and browsers of all types. They offer a great range of classes--I learned to knit there when I realized I'd been visiting the store pretty regularly as a non-knitter (to look at the luscious colors, to feel the various textures and weights, and to imagine what it would be like to be able to make something wearable) Also check out the oddballs and closeouts section in the back--usually 40% off, and I've made some great finds there.. If you have questions, or need help with something, weekdays are best: weekends tend to be very busy.

Located in downtown Winslow, this combination yarn store and tea shop is a knitter's/crafter's/tea-drinker's/city girl's delight. The owners and employees possess an uncanny ability to make every customer feel like the store is there solely for their needs. They have a generous selection of high-quality yarns, a lovely nook of books, and knitting needles made from all sorts of materials (including rosewood). They have shop patterns everywhere, and the products are breathtaking. Best of all, the shop patterns are complimentary with the purchase of yarn for the pattern. Most of all, it's a place you can sit, knit, and chat, and feel like you've taken a mini-vacation.

A short ferry ride from Seattle, Churchmouse Yarns & Teas is a wonderful shop! They carry a diverse collection of yarns and the largest selection of needles I have seen in any shop in Seattle or it's environs! The staff is friendly and helpful and they offer a good selection of classes. They are a bit pricey, however.
