Yelp.com Review - by P F.

3.0 of 5 stars. Sadly, I must agree with most of the reviews here. If only the store was prettier inside, and the lady didn't smoke and smelled like stale smoke, this place has a lot of potential. The inside is just...

Yelp.com Review - by Ellen O.

1.0 of 5 stars. I heard there was a knitting supply place in Castro Valley.Having visited there, now I know there is not, if you want customer service, a good variety of what most knitters want, or a good atmosphere....

Yelp.com Review - by Victoria F.

2.0 of 5 stars. Like others I go to this store purely for the proximity to my home. As far as selection, I have a hard time believing that they carry as many companies as they list on their web site and while...

Yelp.com Review - by Elizabeth R.

1.0 of 5 stars. I would have preferred to rate this business with only 1/2 star, but yelp does not provide that option. I have been to Adela's a number of times over the last few years, and agree that the new...

1.0 of 5 stars. Beware knitters! Look elsewhere for quality yarn! Adela was nice to me when I first walked in, helped with a pattern and everything. I purchased yarn to make my mom a sweater for xmas. I was very...

Yelp.com Review - by Laura G.

3.0 of 5 stars. I agree with the other comments about the dark interior and the smell of cigarettes was a big turn-off (I don't want my gifts to stink of smoke). The staff were friendly, once I picked out the yarn I...

Great Store!

The owner is quite well known among the knitting community and the disarray was surely either her getting ready for, or coming back from, a convention. She is constantly being sent new yarns from the yarn...

Yelp.com Review - by LizaDawn R.

2.0 of 5 stars. Oh Adela, I'm sorry. I'm sure it could be worse. But, well, I've seen a heckuva lot that's better. Don't get me wrong. You need yarn ... they GOT yarn. It's just that I would rather travel 15 miles...

Yelp.com Review - by Consuelo B.

2.0 of 5 stars. My sister brought me in to look at some yarn, but I didn't purchase anything that day. Adela seemed very nice, but I have to agree with the prior posters that I prefer a brighter atmosphere. It...

not worth the trouble by Ruth P. at InsiderPages

I drove from Livermore to find this shop with great expectations. I was disappointed with the shop. Things were not organized and I felt as if I had gone back in time to the late 70s. I bought something that...

Yelp.com Review - by Laurie S.

3.0 of 5 stars. I've brought my mother-in-law here a few times. They seem to have stuff she likes and they are always friendly to her. I'm not so much the knitter or other yarn crafter.....although I agree with Elin,...

Yelp.com Review - by .elin f.

3.0 of 5 stars. I always want to call this place the Yarn Barn. Not sure why. Probably because that sounds better than Adela's Yarn though I'm sure Adela would disagree with me. I've stopped by several times for...
