My family and I stopped in on a personal yarn crawl for my birthday today. We’d visited several shops over the last few days prior but this one.... was a little bit magical. We were warmly greeted my the keeper and all offered freshly brewed iced tea. She offered her help if we needed it but happily left us to our browsing. I felt like I had stepped into Olivanders from Harry Potter with it’s dark wood shelves full of enticing collections- just with yarn, not wands!
We were on a very specific mission to color match for my projects and having visited several shops stretching from Vancouver down to Silverton- Apples to Oranges had by far the absolute BEST selection and just an overall good ambiance.
Plus when I showed the shopkeeper my projects she was really warm and enthusiastic. (I’d shown other shop owners at different shops but because I’m a crocheter, not a knitter, I was treated rudely but here at Apples they were very sweet.)
I will totally be back with my bestie for a day trip very soon!
