Despite being within a half hour of three other great yarn shops, Yarn For Ewe is definately worth the trip out to Okemos.
They have a wide selection of patterns, including an impressive stock of Interweave Knits back issues. They carry a wide variety of yarns that is still a unique selection from all the other area yarn shops. They conveniently have Sunday hours, which is nice when you can only make it to the shop on weekends. They carry a good selection of kits and a very nice variety of yarns, from less expensive acrylic yarns ideal for kids projects to lovely hand-dyed things. The store is fairly well organized if a bit cramped. There are a surprisingly large number of store samples for a store of it's size, which is a nice plus!
