Trip to Knitters Kove, Colorado Springs, CO

Aaah alone in the car with one mission: Get new interesting  yarns! Through the web I found Knitters Kove  on 1817 North Union , Colorado Springs.

I walked in and they had some coustomers talking. I snook in and stolled around feeling the yarns, touching, looking at all the nice stuff they hade made. The shop is big, I think, and they have three aisles, and all sort of yarns. One customer sat down in a chair and knitted.

I shopped lots of Berroco-yarns, and yarn for the Talia vest att Knitty.com in Lambs pride worsted. I also bougt two books for some inspiration, felted ideas from Nicky Epstein and last-minute-gifts, always nice to have. Also an old issue of some knitting magazine.

I talked with the lady and she said that knitting had exploded – FINALLY – in the States. Thay had knitting cafes, and some e-mail group in Colorado Spigs that met on differens Cafees on saturday mornings.

Here are some photos from the shop!
