Knit Tuck & Purl, Inc.

About

Knit Tuck & Purl is an independent yarn shop in the heart of historic Lexington that curates yarns, tools and patterns from around the world. Shelves cover every weight from lace and fingering to chunky and bulky, with brands such as Berroco, Blue Sky Fibers, Malabrigo, Noro, Rowan, Quince & Co., Koigu and Knitting for Olive alongside smaller independent dyers. The shop also stocks needles, crochet hooks, interchangeable sets, notions, books and patterns.

The shop is named after Tucker, the owners’ dog and self-appointed chief quality-control officer, who loves running off with skeins and works in progress. Owners Laurie Williamson and Christine Randazzo have loved knitting for more than thirty years, inspired by visits to an aunt’s yarn shop in Fort Collins, Colorado, and opening their own store fulfilled a long-held dream. They value the relationships built with fellow knitters as much as the craft itself.
