"Fantastic variety of yarn to choose from! The owner is beyond helpful and friendly. I drive 2 hours to support this business almost exclusively. If Jan doesn't have it she will get it! The selection of Indi Dye'd yarn is the best I have seen in a very long time! #1 in my book!"

"I visited Jan’s Yarn Barn about 5 years ago while staying in Newton, Iowa en route to Colorado. What I found was a yarn shoppe filled with amazing yarns to tempted any knitter. Fast forward to Aug. 2022, again en route to CO., when I left home without my pattern for my WIP Entrelac blanket & I was lost! Remembering I would pass Jan’s Yarn Barn, I was hopeful for some guidance. Jan printed out my pattern & she and customer Lorrie got me back on track. Thinking I would be :15 min and on-my-way again turned into 90 min of advice, projects, laughs & chit chat. Jan had tremendous understanding that sometimes you just can’t wrap your head around a pattern. She & Lorrie are wonderful & the shoppe is knitters delight! Stop if your driving by and add to your Stash or in need of help!"

"I was visiting friends in Newton and found this delightful yarn shop filled with a wide selection of yarns! Jan, the owner, has information sheets posted throughout the store to help you know how much yarn you will need for a project! That was super helpful since I didn't have any patterns with me. I was able to buy enough yarn for a scarf and a baby blanket and enjoyed the conversation I had with Jan! I real gem in Newton, Iowa and one not to be missed if you are a knitter!"
