Good Tour/Not enough Seen
Wed, Oct 17, 07   10:30 AM CynthiaHoff Female 50-59 Local Group of Friends
We enjoyed the tour however feel that it would have been better if there had been a time limit set for each store visited. Too much time was spent at 1st location and we didn't get to as many others as we would have liked. This was a great way however to see where some of the little knit/yarn shops are located. Maybe ending the tour at the shop we started with would have worked better. It was a great store and it was hard to leave.

Nice sample of knitting shops

The list of shops was nice to get. We visited three really nice shops (including one workshop--Habu--that was really special) and two that weren't that good. Susan is open to suggestions, so, if you have some specific wishes, let her know!. I was surprised that she apparent;ly hadn't visited some of the shops for awhile, since one was closed and one had very poor stock.

Fantastic!

We had a great time on the knitting walk about. Susan is just great and took us to fantastic places. I took my friend as a retirement gift and we both were very happy (But tired) at the end of the day. I highly recommend this trip.

i was interested in finding new knitting shops and that's just what we did. The group was all strangers to me but all very friendly and easy going. The tour leader was very personable and helpful and I would certainly think about going again on another tour with her. i am interested in returning on my own to some of the pllaces she took us.

A perfect day shopping and knitting

Susan was an excellent guide. Not only did she know the "ins and outs" of the city, she brought us to very cool, obscure knitting shops - places we would never have experienced on our own. Her knowledge of the city's history made the walks between stores interesting and fun. We finished the day happy, tired and much poorer for buying yarn for inspired projects. We would love go with her again and see some of the other shops on her list. (And my husband wants to eat his way through the Arthur Avenue Walk she organizes!) Would highly recommend this outing!

Christmas gift for my wife

The knitting tour was a gift from me to my wife this past Christmas. I offered to go along to carry the packages! - It turned out to be a highlight of our trip to the City. Susan, our guide, took us from shop to shop and provided us with all kinds of information regarding the neighborhoods, history, etc. in between. We were able to see parts of the city that we would never have found on our own, not to mention the shops that are hidden away on the upper floors of the buildings. It was really a fantastic experience. We will arrange for another tour with Susan when we return to NYC.

There were two of us on the knitting crawl. We had lots of fun even though it rained all day!!!! It was great to go to many hidden knitting stores.

A very entertaining day in New York for a knitter from Baltimore!
