"I live on the near east side of Madison and it is a 45 minute drive from home to the Sow's Ear. Even if I just need a needle I make the drive to Verona. The Sow's Ear is the best yarn and coffee place around. One of their best qualities is their excellent customer assistance. Even if you didn't buy the yarn there and are having problems with your project they will frog down until they find your mistake, fix it and reknit back to where you were. I don't know of any other store that provides customer assistance like that. Of course once you are there you get hooked on their fantastic yarn selection and from then on buy all your yarn there. This is a great marketing strategy on their part. No matter where you live it is worth the drive to go to the Sow's Ear and always bring along your knitting because once you are there and have had your question answered or bought your needle you will want to sit down along with the many other knitters and knit in an excellent atmosphere. And don't forget to go to the 1st and 3rd Fridays of the month for late night knitting. Those nights are really hopping."
