Knitting
Ditch your usual daily hobby of Twitter and Instagram, and stitch your way into the pre-modern pasttime of knitting. Sew through the crowds in Soho and step into Purl Soho, an adorable, needlecraft emporium with walls that are lined with yarn of every color you can imagine. Offering classes as basic as scarf knitting, to more advance classes in cable knitting, pearl knitting, to the oh so cute "fair isle" knitting, Purl Soho will teach you a new skill that is both crafty and fashion-forward, as you'll be prepared for the winter months with a self-designed, new scarf!
