Visiting Trillium Yarns is like going home for me. It is owned by Beverly, one of my dearest friends, and is close to the town where I lived and raised my kids for 21 years. Even without the personal connection there are the piles and piles of spectacular yarn, books, magazines, and knitting supplies. It's easy to understand why Trillium Yarns is one of my favorite places to hang out. Earlier this month Beverly moved the store into a charming downtown location in an old building in Morristown, New Jersey. I love this new location for several reasons: the new space has rustic brick walls and a beautiful front window, I can easily walk there from the Morristown train station (yay no driving and worrying about the traffic at the Holland Tunnel), the new location is a few doors down from a fabulous cafe where we can grab a tasty lunch, and there is a beautiful garden out back where knitters can gather in nice weather.
I went to the grand re-opening party on Saturday and snapped a few pics of the new spot. If you are every in the area be sure to stop in and support this wonderful LYS.
Those are gorgeous pics! Out here on the west coast I can just look at the pictures and drool, but thank you for sharing. I'm glad you're back to blogging. I missed you.

That is so nice to hear! I love that store but it used to be so far. Now it's only minutes away from home

Really wish I could have been there. Love the idea of a storefront yarn shop with a courtyard out back, it looks so charming!
