I love the name of this business!! The names that the shop owners pick for their business are all different, but some are very clever, and this is one of them.

This is how Allison (owner of The Sated Sheep) surely wants all of her customers to feel, that frequent her establishment! As all of you know, I live in Washington state. Sarah Wander, a knitter friend of mine, recently moved to Texas. This is a store that is near to her, and one that she visits regularly. When I asked her to help me with a spotlight, this is what she had to say…
Multiple sitting areas and cozy knitted throws are scattered through the shop. Unlike many yarn stores, there are no set times for drop in knitting, and no fine print or fees to join. Just sit and knit to your heart’s content whenever you feel like it. Patrons may enjoy a coffee made on site by Allison or a glass (or bottle!) of wine.
I follow Allison and The Sated Sheep on Instagram, and I can tell you, that she keeps up with all the latest brands and yarns that knitters want. By the looks of these photos that Sarah took, I would be in heaven if this was my local yarn shop. Thank you so much Sarah for helping me out, down there in Texas.
