Thank you so much, kcdixiecat. I love to knit, and I like to visit yarn shops in different cities. We are staying at the Intercontinental on St. Charles; would I be able to walk to the shop on Magazine from my hotel, or would I need to take a taxi? I appreciate your help.

I'm not 100% sure the one on magazine street is still open....it looked a while ago that the building or business was for sale...Call first.

Magazine St has a bus you can take.
