I came in today feeling apprehensive being a male knitter. Usually I feel like an oddball, but the owner was incredibly friendly and let me look & touch without feeling watched or judged. I walked out with incredibly too much yarn (lol), but a love for a store in a different state than in from. Dangerous!!!

Surprised to read that some people found employees to be unfriendly as my experience was the opposite. I came in and was immediately greeted. I don’t remember the name of the man assisting me but he was very helpful walking me around the store to show me the different yarns I could use for the pattern I brought in. They had a great selection and the store was very pleasant to be in, I would definitely recommend.

I haven’t been here in a long time, and now i remember why. While the shop and selection is amazing, the staff was unfriendly and i felt bad interrupting their day with my silly questions, requests for help, and making then come to the counter so i could give then my hard earned money. I would like to go back to support a local business, but I’d rather stick a knitting needle in my eye. I get better service from the automated online checkout on the internet.

LOVE this place! I live on the other side of the country, but I keep coming back to their site to order (they have a HUGE selection, and fast shipping). When I am in Omaha, I always try to stop too.
Their selection is amazing. It beats any LYS I have access to here. Joe has always been friendly and helpful; he knows my love for Koigu. I am really impressed with the selection of yarn and prices. Highly recommend.

So I picked up some European knitting p*rn the other day and became entranced with the idea of knitting a sweater named Savanna. I am not kidding you. The sweaters have names. I am not sure that they are their real names lol My chosen sweater is probably known in real life as Sandy.
Anyway, I went to Personal Threads because
a) they had the yarn for Savanna (4 ply cashsoft* by Rowan)
b) they are having the annual 20% off sale right now
c) their inventory is updated regularly on their website so you know if they have what you want and how much it is going to cost ahead of time
c) Michael’s just does not do it for me anymore, especially since I went woolly and started felting.
Joe helped me correctly calculate the number of balls I needed and the proper size needles. Kathy sold me a leather coin thimble for fingertip protection (she teaches knitting classes there, too) and some more yarn because I became enamored with Emily (Lima** in Machu Pichu by Rowan). And boy, does she have bobbles. Lots of ‘em.
Heaven help me!

They do have a wonderful yarn selection. The yarn is beautiful but does not have price tags on it. You have to look the price up in a big book – very inconvenient and difficult.
I have been in here many times and found the staff, in general to be unhelpful and not friendly. They seem to have a superiority complex-​to the point where you feel like you are bothering them if you ask for help. I haven’t been in for a while. They did move recently after their building was torn down for the Children’s Hospital expansion.
There are several other yarn shops in Omaha that I prefer. I really feel a yarn shop should be focused on the customer.
