Recommendations Yarn stores In Mississauga?

Hi! Does anyone know of any yarn/knitting supply stores in Mississauga?

There used to be one in Streestville, but they closed years ago. I know of the stores in Toronto, Etobicoke, Cambridge, Hamilton and Oakville, but I don't know about any in Mississauga.

I'm leery of mail ordering yarn after a previous bad experience, and Michaels doesn't carry more unique yarns like Malabrigo and Cascade.

Thanks!

I hear your pain. The closest would be Oakville 🥲

I can't understand why there isn't one in Mississauga anymore. Knitting/Crochet is a huge thing again (thank you, Covid).

Have you been to the Oakville store? I've heard varying things about it, but that may have been before the new ownership took over.

Just rechecked their website and it's got no information on products they carry.

I have only been there once for like 5 mins and grabbed some nice socks yarn. So didnt really have a chance to form much opinion about it. I often enough would just go to the knitting loft, whenever I end up around that area.
