when i first started there (fall of 2011) i made the 'mistake' of asking one of the 'front-end managers' (Michael's has since gone through a re-org) for some advice on starting to learn to crochet.... and the rest is history.

also, yarn. i like one of the yarns they distribute (Impeccable) to use for my amigurumis. =)

weirdly enough though, JoAnn's is my first choice of yarn stores if i'm looking for yarn for a shawl. or a blanket - i love their blanket yarn color choices.

my Michael's is next door to an AC Moore, and is in shopping center across the (big) street from a JoAnn's. XD
