The Yarn Shop has been a Glen Arbor fixture since the 1950s - A Family business that has stayed in the same family for more than 50 years.
These days, the Yarn Shop is a hive of creative activity, open seven days each week throughout the year. Mary Turak, the store's owner, regards it as a working studio and yarn lab as well as a retail outlet for a wide range of exciting novelty yarns in a full range of colors and textures and a great selection of worsted and bulky weight wools. In addition to yarns from commercial sources, Mary creates unique skeins using unexpected, innovative combinations of yarn. The Yarn Shop's reputation for original handknit sweaters has expanded to include cutting edge garments geared and designed for all skill levels. Free instruction is offered any time the store is open. Come visit us!
The Yarn Shop hosts open knitting every Tuesday, 6:30-9 p.m. at the store. All knitters of all skill levels are welcome.
