Love the Alexander Henry fabrics and although small it is packed with fabrics for clothing & quilting. Plus yarn, lots of yarn!

Obviously something a bit different than in the past. Reservations are necessary. And though the Indonesian batik section is smaller than in the past, the fabrics on hand are stunning. Staff is friendly and helpful. Though I am not a crochet/knitter, the yarn looks luxurious and I about want to take up the hobby whenever I visit.

I visited today and that proved to be a terrible idea. Such is existence, however, they can easily replace customers and Ill remember to check out yarn.com or some other shop instead, so no great loss. Surely, their selection isnt unique.Edit:Oh, they dont much care for people wearing faceguards (despite the fact that those are in compliance), dont have much in the way of online shopping (really), and and the place isnt particularly accessible too, so, if you have certain conditions/disabilities youre better off avoiding this place, as youll either be discriminated against if you cant wear a mask (and thus wears a facegaurd) or you just flat out wont be trustworthily accommodated. As Ive said, customers are just customers to them and they can be replaced.Also, as Ive found out, after posting this review initially, it seems that they harass you if you give a negative review, so, yes, I would give zero starts but, still, one is just as suffice.

Excellent fabric shop. I truly appreciate the help that the staff offers when I shop at Silk Road Textiles. They are kind and thoughtful, frequently asking me about what I am looking for. Im a puppeteer, and often need unusual items for puppet building.Recently I was in need of a specific type thread. Sadly it wasnt in stock, however the clerk kindly offered to special order it for me. I was very impressed by this. The thread arrived a few days later! Thank you for the superior customer service!

I really, really love this store! I have the hardest time finding monk’s cloth/evenweave that will work for cross stitch in various colors. Silk Road had just what I wanted! They don’t have a huge yarn selection, but their fabrics are to die for. They also carry lots of notions that are hard to find elsewhere. Hoping to come back soon!Edited to add: Id love to see more selections from brands like Lichen & Lace and Frabjous Fibers that carry multi-skein packs with patterns, and a few more choices for natural fiber yarn costing less than $30/skein.

This was my first time to a yarn store. I absolutely loved the yarn and the staff was so sweet and I really appreciated it being noticed when I came in the store. Additionally, it was so comforting to see the welcome signs, welcoming all types of different people. Being a woman of color, and an immigrant, it was so nice to feel welcomed.

Very cool store. Good selection of yarn. Has more of a sewers store vibe, but equally worth the visit.

Review №23

What a lovely shop! The staff is super helpful and friendly. The shop carries an inspiring collection of fabrics, yarn, knitting needles, patterns and more.For quilters and sewists, this is the place for the unique inspired fabrics that won’t find everywhere. They also have a fine selection of other fabrics but it’s the unique that will draw me back.

Review №32

Beautiful, natural-fiber fabrics and yarns that cant be found anywhere else in Cincinnati. Lots of quilting cottons, but also cotton knits, rayon, silk, and wool apparel fabrics. Lots of sewing, knitting, and crochet patterns and books (although you wont find anything from McCalls, Simplicity, or Butterick here). Expect to pay more than you would at JoAnns or Hobby Lobby (no 40%-off coupons, either) but if youre looking for high quality and uniqueness, this is the place.

Three friends and I visited this shop last week and were so impressed with the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff and the selection of fabrics and yarn. Though we live almost two hours away, I can guarantee that we will be going back soon. It is most definitely worth the drive.

Review №36

After being disappointed with JoAnns, let down by Mood and close to giving up on finding perfection for a special event dress, my daughter and I drove down from Dayton....I was not in the best frame of mind and already set that I just wasnt going to find I what I wanted....but WOW ! I was SO wrong. Not only did I find something amazing, the kind and attentive staff let me lay put patterns to figure out yardage since I was mixing fabrics....They were all wonderfully tolerant of my 5 year old helper. Ill definitely make the drive again - with a bigger budget because there was just too much I loved !!! Their incredible, well organized selection of yarn has me wanting to start knitting again and my daughter wants to come back for buttons. Truly worth the drive for such an incredible little shop staffed by people with a huge passion !!

The staff here are very knowledgeable about both the textiles themselves and any techniques or technical questions surrounding them. The selection is pretty great given how small the building is, they carry prints and fabric types that Ive not seen even in major fabric retailers.
