The NYC Yarn Crawl runs four days across participating shops including Knitty City, letting fiber fans hit every stop with an added extra day this year.
A cozy riot of color on the Upper West Side, Knitty City is the kind of yarn shop that could convert even the most craft-averse into someone who suddenly “just wants to make a scarf.” Walk in and you’ll find folks chatting over their needles, browsing books stacked with diagrams that look like knitting’s version of MRI scans, and a team that genuinely loves solving your “I’m stuck on row 43” crisis. It’s equal parts serious fiber-studio and neighborhood hangout. Classes, open-knit nights, pop-ups from indie dyers. If you’ve ever wanted to buy yarn and a story, this is your spot.
