Knit NY is my favorite NYC yarn shop just to hang out in. As far as sitting and knitting, its far less cramped than other popular hang outs. The coffee is good, the yarn selection is quite good (they have all my favorites), and the prices are reasonable.
The only drawback to this place is the owner. She's curt and treats you like you are bothering her if you ask questions.
The rest of the staff is friendly and helpful and the hours are amazing!
Pros: Atmosphere, Selection, Hours
Cons: Owner
