Metaphor Yarns is the only local yarn shop in the village of Shelburne Falls. We offer classes for beginning knitters and those of more experienced levels.  We are happy to offer classes at a customer's request so please stop in and share your ideas. 

We cherish knitters of all shapes, sizes and ages; from the 1st grader in the after-school program who makes each stitch with great care and concentration, to the lovely lady in her 9th decade who lives down the street from the shop, we have a glorious time teaching and sharing.
