Make a Day of Visiting Old Town Yarnery

Old Town Yarnery is lucky enough to be nestled in the historic heart of downtown Fredericksburg, Virginia. Our shop is surrounded by streets and buildings frequented by Revolutionary War heroes and civil war soldiers, some of which remain historical landmarks, others which have become locally owned boutiques, artist studios, and restaurants.
