Knitty City

After scoping out the store's collection of colorful yarns (everything from coarse wools to rich silks), kids ages seven to 11 can sign up for a four-week class ($110) where they'll learn how to make purses, hats and even sweaters for their stuffed animals. Or grab a spot at the Sunday parent-child classes ($100 for four sessions) where generations can bond over a family knitting project of their choice.
