I would argue that Wellington Fibres is a dyer and not a store, per se (they sell their own yarn products only), but that is an option! However, totally inaccessible for someone who doesn't have a car. At least Shall We Knit? was on a couple bus lines, and a block away from the Iron Horse Trail.
I only know the place from riding by it on my bike, but from DTK it looks to be ~27km and the Galt House of Yarn is only ~22km each way. The trail down to Galt is a nice ride, mostly can be done on paths without too much hills, and it's pretty easy to grab a bus to shorten the ride if you don't feel like doing it all in one go. The trail on Homer Watson takes out most of the climbing that's on the Walter Bean trail in Kitchener, or on Mill Park Drive, though that way is fun heading to Galt.
