Teena – Kiwi Knitting

Dear Tucson,

I met a nice young man today at Kiwi Knitting Company, a yarn shop. He was wearing road bike gear and was clanking around the wood floors on bike cleats. He had a pretty sweet ride outside too. He was purchasing skeins of green, white, and orange yarn to knit an Irish flag. I ♥ Tucson.

Teena and I met at Kiwi Knitting on sixth street. Tucson boasts not one, but four local yarn stores, striking for a place known for it’s heat rather than it’s need for warm woollens. Kiwi Knitting is nestled in the Sam Hughes neighborhood and is the sort of place where you’re as likely to meet a biker dude buying yarn as a nice old lady or a hipster indulging in beautiful yarn. The yarn bombed bicycle, the Irish flag, and a craft loving homespun Tucson.
