New York Yarn Store

I went to the Lower East Side today so my DH could get the rest of his tattoo filled in, and I found the most beautiful yarn store.

Its called Knit New York on 307 14st. NYC tele 212-397-0707 (wwwknitnewyork.com)

They had the most beautiful colors and textures - yes, they were a bit on the pricey side, but I feel that good yarn is going to cost a few dollars. I spent alot of money :eek but am so happy with what I got :yay . I also bought myself Alpaca since I gave two skeins in the yarn swap and made a scarf as a gift. Let me tell you, I think its the best yarn ever - it really is so soft :c9

I plan to go into NYC next week. Does anyone know any yarn shops in the midtown area... sort of between 47 St and 34 St.? Is there a 'yarn district'?

Also, any place to get purse handles? I know MJ Trimming, but there stuff looks REALLY expensive (at least what I've seen online).

Thanks!

Go to the internet and type in Yarn midtown and you will get alot of listings that you can chose from. I havent shopped in any of them so it should be interesting for you:cheer

I was there in March!!! I loooooooooove this shop. They had some really beautiful yarns, and CHOCOLATE MUFFINS. Is there a better combination!? It's on my "best of" list for NYC, and I plan to check it out next time I'm in town!:manyheart
