I went to Fine Points in the fall of 2011 to get yarn to make crocheted amigurumi. From the moment I entered the store, I was asked every 3 to 5 minutes if I needed help, and also followed from room to room. I don't know if it was that specific employee or a store policy to profile certain people as potential shop lifters, but it was made abundantly clear that I was a suspected to be a criminal and not welcome. It was humiliating and demeaning that I couldn't browse a yarn shop without being trailed simply because of the color of my skin. This shop owner and her employees need to learn some cultural sensitivity. As for me, I'll continue to spend my money at stores like Pat Catan's or JoAnn's, places that actually carry a decent, affordable selection of yarn and, in my experience, don't racially profile their potential customers. This place has nothing to offer to crocheters or people of color.
