PRESS, Style Expert Pamela Pekerman Showcases Crochet Fashion on PIX Morning News NY: PAMELA PEKERMAN

It's Thread the Needle Day and I celebrated by spotlighting knit and crochet fashion and accessories on PIX11 Morning News. If you didn't catch the 8:40am segment, watch the piece below. I've also listed a buyer's guide for all the items, since we didnt' get to eveything.  

Sarah Jessica Parker and Julia Roberts do it! Wanna learn how to knit? Check out Lion Brand Yarn Studio at 34 W. 15th Street. They offer about 100 classes a month ranging from beginner classes all the way through higher level technique workshops and special master classes taught by industry experts. Don’t want to venture below 57th Street? Knitty City, located on 208 W. 79th St. has beginer classes for as low at $30. Plus, they are offering classes in Bryant Park every Tuesday for free from 1:30-3pm. I might just meet you there!
