Camas Creek Cottage

Last month, while we were in northwestern Montana, I visited all the yarn stores I could, without having to stray too far out of our way.  On one of our trips  around Flathead Lake, we visited Kalispell and I had the opportunity to go to Camas Creek Cottage, the LYS.   

The Shop

Camas Creek Cottage is located in the heart of downtown Kalispell, along the strip of old downtown.  Since this area is busy and has a lot of traffic, parking can be a challenge.  But there is street parking as well as public parking lots (with meters).

The shop is in an old building and is very quaint.   There is a big table that is the focal point – for group knitting and classes.   I was greeted by a nice lady who was knitting at the table and she quickly answered my questions and helped me when I needed something.

The Yarn

There are a lot of yarns for sale in this shop but I was, honestly, captivated by their huge selection of yarn from Big Sky Yarn Company.  I had seen this yarn online and couldn’t wait to see it in person!  And they had so much to choose from, it was overwhelming.  Deciding to stay on a budget – one skein! – I did not stray far from this display.

Camas Creek offers a huge selection of other yarns, as well as supplies for knitting, crochet, and needlepoint.  The shop also carries some other things: antique jewelry, books, and other knick-knacks.

Conclusion

If you’re in the Kalispell area, Camas Creek is a great stop for anyone who loves the fiber arts.  There is plenty of yarn to choose from and any supplies you may need can be found here.
