39 Yarn Shops of Nova Scotia

Are you looking for all of the Yarn Shops in Nova Scotia while visiting? Finding fabulous yarn stores may be harder to locate as they may be tucked in tourist towns or off the beaten track in the cities.

Updated June 30, 2023 with the latest information. Links, where available, are provided for each location. Please check their hours of operation.

Michaels Stores and Walmart exist in various places in Nova Scotia and are generally easy to find through Google Maps. Our goal was to locate the names of the stores and provide their address so you can find them too. Follow the Yarn Tales in Nova Scotia.

As a general note: Check these stores' websites or social media posts if you are unsure of open times. With Nova Scotia being a small province, visiting many little yarn stores daily is possible.

All store information was accurate at the time of producing this document.

Please don't drop in at The Crochet Crowd without an appointment. We are not open to the public and Mikey may be filming.

    Hi,
    I'm Andrea, of Natural Ewe Yarns. We are a family owned and operated small business in Pictou, NS. We dye our yarns with all natural dyes and offer them in our shop as well as on line. We retail both our and other yarns as well as environmentally friendly notions and accessories.
    Wondering how to get on you list of yarn stores in Nova Scotia.
    Thanks
    Andrea

      I think I got your email but we are struggling with updating this as the technology for the phones has changed. We are are working through the steps but not having success. We want to link the stores to have a direct map but it's not working. We are most likely going to take this page down as it's not working as we want it to.
