User Reviews for Knit Wit

My mother used to shop here when I was a kid and they were on 17th St. around the corner. They still have the most stunning collection of fine clothing in the city. It's very pricey but in terms of quality it is worth every penny! The fabrics are so good that I find I can wear things for several years as opposed to chain store clothing which generally looks crappy after one season. Do the math!

Why does everyone forget the Knit Wits (sister) store around the corner ? The clothes are beautiful and the jewelry and accessories are to die for ! Plage Tahiti 128 s 17th /corner of 17th and Sansom Street.If your looking for something special you will find it on one of their 2 levels . You will not want to leave without buying something! If you leave empty handed, you were not in the wrong store,You were in the wrong state of mind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Knit Wit is a Philadelphia icon; it's a women’s clothing store that has been outfitting, assisting, and serving women for many years. The staff is friendly and goes above and beyond to assist. The clothes are gorgeous - everything from paul smith to marc jacobs to DVF and much much more. Pants, dresses, sweaters, skirts, accessories. The jewelry selection is breathtaking - unique, beautiful pieces that you will covet. I highly recommend you visit Knit Wit in Philadelphia, Bryn Mawr, or Margate, NJ. You will be very happy you did!

Pros: the clothes, the locations, the service and staff, the accessories, EVERYTHING!

The Knit Wit in Ardmore is the best--great selection, and the sales women are all very friendly, helpful and down-to-earth. Joanne, in particular, has a great talent for assessing your personality and directing you to exactly what you didn't even know you were looking for. I love Knit Wit!

I stopped in this store last week because the Prada tee-shirts were pretty cute and I wanted to purchase one for my sister whom is a Prada-Freak. The girls that worked in the store were not welcoming and stared at me right from the door. In fact, they treated me like I did not below there. Sorry you missed out on meeting a very nice, cheery young lady that had no problem spending cash/using my credit card in your store. I've informed my colleagues and friends of my treatment too. Learn to choose people on the content of their character, not their color/race.

You'll pay so much more here than necessary. Recently I saw a DVF dress for $475, when Bloomies sold it on clearance in August (6 mos ago) for $245. Ther rest of the selection is overpriced, boring and unimaginative. Danielle Scott shoes and bags are also last season items sold at full price. I always leave this store empty-handed.

Cons: Overpriced, Old selections, No variety
