Our Help Policy  - if you've got a problem we can solve in a few minutes come in anytime, BUT if it's going to be a bit more complicated it's best to come to one of the drop in groups - Tues 6-8pm, Wed 11am-1pm, Sat 9:30-11:30, cost is $10.  If you can't make it those times we can set up a private session ($10/30 minutes) on Tuesday or Thursday before the shop opens AND if you have yarn/pattern that you purchased somewhere other than us and you need help with it, it will only be done in the drop in groups or private session.  If you come in during regular business hours you are taking us away from the people who support us.  You wouldn't buy a refridgerator from Sears and then go to Home Depot to have them explain the manual.  Well, it's the same thing here.  We have enough on our plates we don't need to take on another shops products.  Everything we sell we support.  We have a vested interest in you finishing your project and enjoying it.  Our first priority has to be the people who buy their yarn from us.  If you bought your materials somewhere else ask them for help or come to a group.
