Beautiful fabric and wool store in the St Hubert strip under the awnings of the Promenades. Walking into this space it feels just right - gracious puppy dog at the doorway, couches full of knitters, happy folks of all ages pawing at the pretty stacks of fabrics which range stylistically from 60's psychedelia, bold blacks and whites, pretty paisleys, and all kinds of modern quirky colours and designs. I could spend ages in a room like this; and pounds of toonies; and all my health rolling around with the golden retriever who is death to allergy-ridden-me but whom I adore anyways on principle.

If you are a knitter and live in, or are swinging through Montreal, you must check out Effiloché. Their selection is superb - a wide range, from the high end beautiful treats (sea silk!) to the every-day workhorse yarns of the world, but with a definite trend toward the luscious. The space is cozy and warm, with a parlor-style knitting area complete with comfy couches. When we visited, the place was filled with mothers and babies...aww.
In the back, you'll find a formidable selection of quilting fabrics and buttons (in mason jars...I love it!) and a decent choice of books (many francophone). They also have a small selection of spinning supplies toward the front. And they have a bathroom...which is very important when wandering the streets of a big city.
Yes, they speak English, and the staff are very friendly. When the bridal-gown stores of Rue St.-Hubert make you dizzy, come here to unwind and oogle fine yarn. It's good for you.
