About

The Dropped Stitch is a cozy queer-owned crochet shop in Chicago, one of the few explicitly LGBTQ+-focused craft stores in the city. It's women-led and welcomes all ages, making it a comfortable spot for beginners and experienced makers alike. The vibe is casual and family-friendly, so you can browse yarns and supplies without pressure.

Hours are consistent throughout the week: 12pm to 6pm Monday through Friday, with an earlier opening at 11am on Saturdays and a 5pm close on Sundays. If you're new to crochet, the friendly staff can help you get started. It's a quiet, low-key alternative to bigger craft chains.
