Knitting Temptations

Very nice and knowledgeable. I took two classes with them for beginner crochet and knitting. Classes were very hands on and lots of individual attention. Instructor took the time to point good products for beginners and answer questions. Am looking forward to taking another class with them when I have gotten better and am ready skill wise for the next class. When I walked in off the street staff was great and friendly.

So expensive, but so temping. The name is fitting.

I’ve never seen so much Malabrigo and Madelinetosh in one place! (One of the employees said it was the leftovers of a special event they’d had recently.) This is a great little shop in Dublin, practically next door to Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream, a tea shop, and many restaurants. (Also not far from the zoo, if I recall correctly.) It’s in an old house, so you get to wander from room to room to discover what lies around each new corner. I was particularly enamored of the needle closet! They also have a gorgeous studio for classes, product photography, etc. This is what I aspire my own yarn shop to be like someday.

I love this place. They have a great selection, the staff is always nice, and it’s nice to be able to wander Old Dublin, grab some fun yarn, and end the day with ice cream.

Great yarn and very friendly people. Owner was very interactive with help in purchases. My friend needed online help and a computer was available for her to view her Ravelry page right in the store. The house was neat and tidya dn very organized. Good selection in the sales bins as well :)

R reports a really good variety of yarn available, as well as some spinning wheels and other accoutrements. She bought a bunch of yarn, so they have less now but will probably get more. Noticeably absent was a place for dudes to sit while their wives shop for yarn. Step up your game Temptations and put in some nice chairs so I have somewhere comfortable to sit while I watch my life pass me by. R says the people running the show were very friendly as well.

I love it here! Karen is wonderful and she carries everything a yarn crafter could desire. I order my specialty yarns ffrom her and she always gets them in within a week’s time; no hassle.
They offer many classes here and even though I’ve never taken one, I’m sure that she’s just as sweet and helpful then as she is when you’re walking through her store.
I have no need to visit any other yarn shop because Karen does it for the love of the craft and you can’t ask for more than that.

This is my favorite yarn store in Columbus. Every time I walk in, even if I haven’t been there in forever, the ladies greet me as if I’m an old friend. There’s never any following around like they expect me to shoplift; instead they are very helpful without being annoying or overbearing. They really know their yarns and always have a suggestion for something new to try. The store has a nice mix of basics (your Cascade 220 and such) and exotic (some amazing Neighborhood Fiber Arts stuff comes to mind). I’ve placed special orders before and am always notified promptly when my product arrives in the store. I would highly recommend this shop to anyone who loves yarn and great customer service.

This adorable yarn shop is located inside an old house in Dublin’s historic section. From the outside it seems that this shop can’t possible house that much yarn, but oh boy it does!
I was greeted by very friendly staff upon entering. I didn’t feel discriminated by my age (I’m a DAMN good 20 something year old knitter I tell you and I don’t appreciate being frowned upon as a newb by older knitters) and I was informed of the knitting group meetings that they host at the shop. I have been looking for a knitting group and was so pleased to hear about one from such welcoming people.
The yarn selection was aweeessooooome! Malabrigo, Blue Sky Alpaca, Rowan, Noro, Araucania, Lorna’s Laces… they have it all! I had a fabulous time gawking at and feeling up the goods. The yarn was arranged by weight — Bulky in one room, sock yarn and lace in another etc. I settled on a ShiBui sock yarn in a pretty fallish orange color called «Pagoda». Can’t wait to knit it up.
I will be looking for an excuse to come back soon despite my overflowing yarn stash.
