What a treat! Two brand new boutique yarn shops opened recently, offering knitters and crocheters (aspiring or experienced) a selection of specialty yarns and project supplies in modern colors and textures:
Infinite Yarns
275 Main Street, Farmingdale

Owner Anne Schneck stocks her tastfully decorated store with a selection of designer yarns by Debbie Bliss, Madile and Knitting Fever, among other brands. Mohair, merino wool, silk blends...the textures go on and on. A well-lit work area in the back will be the setting for knitting and crocheting classes, which are forming now.
Village Knitter
Fire Island Avenue, Babylon
Village Knitter
This new yarn shop in Babylon Village comes from Karen Klein, the former owner of KnitWorks in Amityville. It's a small space with a colorful variety of yarns tucked into white cubbies along the wall. Knitting classes-- some focused on unique projects like felted clogs, bags or bow-tie scarves- are held several nights a month.
