Called a “great little store that carries a very nice selection of yarn, knitting needles, crochet hooks” by reviewers, this little shop is just across the river from East High School. Be sure to call and confirm that they are open though…Patti might be home with her new grandbaby instead of at the store!
Monterey Yarn
1541 Bellevue St # 2 Green Bay, WI 54311
920-884-5258
Monterey Yarn has plenty to choose from, from company made yarn, to very expensive and beautiful artistic yarn, with the added bonus of making an effort to stay away from yarn created via exploited labor. They’re also currently taking donations of 12×12 garter stictch squares to create blankets for the homeless this winter, so use up those scraps and bring them with you to drop off while shopping!

While they are generally open every day, Shana will occasionally be out of the shop picking up kids, shoveling snow or taking care of dog emergencies so be sure to check the shop’s Facebook page before heading over!

Not much is known about Dianna’s shop, since it does not have a web presence as of yet. We can only imagine that it is an adorable shop run by a sweet little old lady who will take the time to teach you how to turn the heel on that sock already.
