These 10 Hidden Italian Restaurants In Maine Are Local Favorites For Cozy Fall Evenings

Pasta now gets served in a Maine dining room that once sold hardware. I love that swap. Nails and wrenches out, meatballs and chicken parm in. Another spot on this list sits inside a converted mill. Two others feature a fireplace inside. One even makes its own gelato, which feels like a smart move after a big plate of rigatoni.

This Maine Yarn Shop Has Hundreds Of Choices You Won’t Find At Your Average Craft Store

More than 600 different yarns sit under one roof at this family-run shop. That number made me do a double take. Most big craft chains can’t come close. The shelves go well beyond the usual suspects. Malabrigo, Cascade, and Berroco share space with yarns spun and dyed right here in Maine. I like how local fiber farms get real shelf space next to the famous names.
