Modern Yarn offers a wide variety of knitting supplies, classes and other services. Customers can stop in for tea and finish a project, or get that badly needed help on a project (free fixing if under 15 minutes). There is a socially conscious section of the shop that offers yarns and supplies that support women in South America, Nepal and Vietnam and support a green environment. They also do charity knitting and hold other events. Brands include Blue Heron, Blue Sky Alpaca, Cascasd, Frog Tree, Habu Textiles and more.
