I went there in 2001, flew home on the 9th September, glad it wasn't 2 days later!<br />I used to enjoy a good jigsaw puzzle, pre-cross stitch days.<br />Your cardinals are gorgeous, I was explaining to my Mum about them the other day. Neither of us knew they were a real bird that bright red and so common in the States. we thought they were like the plump robins you see on Xmas cards, nice but nothing like the real ones!Jo who can't think of a clever nicknamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02663450738390351663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4736705671514488281.post-61574477841042283102013-02-16T22:09:32.750-05:002013-02-16T22:09:32.750-05:00Okay, so I just started following your blog becaus...Okay, so I just started following your blog because Granny Trace told me you lit your project on fire because it went "awry". Oh. My. Girl, I felt your frustration. Being a new stitcher with eye astigmatisms, I am constantly messing up and finding out later. You made me laugh out loud!

You'd probably need a car to get to them, though. I've been to Annie's, on the Upper East Side. She has a knitting store downstairs and a needlepoint store upstairs. The website is www.annieandco.com, if you want to check it out. And welcome to the Big Apple! Despite our lack of good needlework shops, it's still a great city!Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13666876317242523614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4736705671514488281.post-32126852444715192932013-02-16T11:29:33.500-05:002013-02-16T11:29:33.500-05:00Wow, have fun in NYC!

For knitting, I think the most famous one is Purl Soho, and there is also the Lion Brand Yarn Studio.

It is my absol...You must visit Purl Soho in NYC!!! It is my absolute favorite shop. From knitting to fabric to a tiny bit of stitching, it is by far a great store. There are some other great shops like Tinsel Trading which carries lots of trims, ribbon, lace, etc. In the Fashion District you can find lots of shops. There is also a quilt store, City Quilter, that has great fabric.<br /><br />No other stitching shops in NYC, however, there is one (my LNS) in NJ just across the Hudson River called Where Victoria's Angels stitch. You can take the bus and I believe it drops you off close to the shop. <br /><br />If you need addresses and such, send me an e-mail.<br />I live in the suburbs of NYC and make a trip every now and then to visit a lot of these shops.<br />PamPamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05773416624168237210noreply@blogger.com
