Are knitters also Gardeners?

This one surely is. Marion Hobart has been knitting all her life, following in the footsteps of a mother who was never without her needles. Mariam and her husband have lived her for 20 years, and perfected the flower gardens with donations of perenials from friends across New England. The Yarn shop was born 6 years ago, the culmination of a life long dream. LLamas also grace this property. This picturesque site is a welcoming destination at the intersection of Rt 28 and 495 in Middleboro, MA. Come to knit and admire.


The Shop is behind the house and just as pristine as the rest of the place. It's a small, well organized and cozy shop where women meet to knit, share, learn, support and develop long friendships. Every Thursday night she has a sit and knit night open to the public. Feel free to join.

Marion has always loved the Dale yarns and patterns - standards for any well respected yarn shop. She will be scheduling a baby sweater class soon for all the new mothers and grandmothers. Baby sweaters are fun and fast to knit. Even if you don't have a baby to knit for today, baby things are always fun to knit and can be added to you gift stash/cache ready for the next baby to come along.


You won't find a prettier setting for a yarn store or a more personnal store for a feeling of friendship and connections.
