The Sow's Ear

The Sow's Ear is a yarn shop and café that has operated for 25 years, pairing espresso drinks and teas made with locally roasted coffee with a wide selection of yarn, fiber, knitting needles, books and notions. The café serves sandwiches made with local ingredients and baked goods from its in-house bakery, and local art hangs on the walls.

The shop stocks yarn by weight, fiber content and brand, along with roving, spinning fibers and tools for knitting, crochet and embroidery. Online classes and in-person events are listed on the website, and gift cards are available. The café and shop are on South Main Street in Verona, Wisconsin, with hours posted for weekdays and weekends.
