About Us:
A-MAJOR-KNITWORK is a major yarn shop for all your knitting and crocheting needs. The owners are experts in custom chart pattern creations — writing personalized instructions from a photo, sketch, or favorite sweater. They offer individual knitting/crocheting patterns based on swatches and measurements. The shop sells the latest high-fashion yarns alongside high-quality basic yarns, and offers a large selection of needles, accessories, books, leaflets, and buttons — a perfect spot in the San Fernando Valley where a skein of yarn becomes a-major-knit-wearable, snuggable, or giftable.
