I thought this was a lovely store, until I signed up for the much touted Finchbox. We had a choice, 1 for "knitters" or 1 for "sewers". I signed up for a knitters box. Each box is $50. The first box was just that...full of items for knitters. The second box had nothing to do with knitting. It had a little note pad, a kit to string beads and make a necklace and a little pouch in which to put the necklace. The necklace was basically string, a few occasional beads and a charm that said "make". First, I signed up for a "knitting" box, not a "random craft" box. Second, really?, who would wear that!? I called to ask about returning this box and was told "we have a zero return policy" and that they thought "their customers would like to try something different". This was only the 2nd box...we havent had time to want something different AND we should have been given a choice to either accept "something different" for the $50 fee or skip to the next box. I followed up with an email asking to return for store credit and received no response. Bottom line, this is bad business. They took the money and delivered something different than what was advertised. Then, chose to ignore it and lose a customer than make it right.

I really cant say enough great things about this little gem of a place. Just walking in the door makes you happy...the vibrant colors, the cute decor, and the knowledgeable staff! They put a lot of thought into everything they do here and it shows. I have tried learning to knit off & on through the years and it always ended in failure. I am so happy to say that after Knitting 101 at Finch I am a knitter! I progressed to Knitting 102 and am signed up for the Block class starting this fall. The sense of community Finch creates is magical. They encourage that feeling of being creative together by offering knit nights and other social events centered around various projects. That sense of community shows as well in the beautiful Finch boxes. How cool that we can get a piece of Finch in the mail every other month. Its obvious that a lot of care and thought go into each box and they are intentionally designed to have us try new and different projects. If you are creative or just wish you were, Finch Knitting + Sewing is the perfect place for you!

I was greeted as soon as I came in the door. I felt very welcome. I am from California and the town is very quaint. Looks very New England. I love the brick on the buildings and the Finch is so nicely set up. I found everything I needed and bringing back gifts for my friends. Looking forward to knitting night on Tuesday. Cant say enough about this place. Well done in every way.
