California Crochet

Friday, April 24th, 2009

A lovely lady once told me that San Francisco yarn shops were better than New York yarn shops.  I had to see for myself, so I went to California last month.  Actually, that’s not why I went, but I made it my business to go to a yarn shop while there.  The same lovely lady mentioned previously took me to ImagiKnit.

I thought ImagiKnit was very nice. The place was filled floor to ceiling with beautiful rainbows of yarn.  I wanted to buy it all of course, even the buttons!

So where is the better knitting/crochet scene?  SF or NY??  I will need a bit research before I can decide that for myself.  From what I’ve experienced, both are equally pleasant.  Though, The Point, NYC wins major points for the awesome coffee and tea… Mmmmm…. Imagine ImagiKnit with a cafe… that would be downright dreamy…

PS – Since I was on vacation, I did bring home some goodies…

I am absolutely in love with these colors… I’m hoping to make myself the fat-bottomed bag in The Happy Hooker, but at the present I am unable to find my copy of the book.  That’s right, I LOST MY BIBLE.  Where is it? ???  I’m offering a handsome reward for anyone who brings her home to me.
