Room6 in Deep Cove

Thursday, August 24th, 2006

This morning I drove up to gorgeous Deep Cove in North Vancouver with a big pile of yarn to meet Megan, the owner of Room6, and her cute dog, August. An hour later, I left the shop with a much, much smaller pile!

Room6 is a lovely and eclectic boutique right near the waterfront in Deep Cove and carries clothing, jewelry, accessories, books (like surfer magazine’s Guide to Northern and Central California Surf Spots) artwork and gifts made from local designers and artists. Megan also carries knitting yarn that is altogether different from what you find at most yarn shops in town — she has Magic Balls from Be Sweet, Ozark Handspun, organic cottons from Blue Sky Alpacas, and she’s also the only shop in Canada to carry Suss yarns (you know, Suss from Hollywood Knits). And now, she has some SweetGeorgia Yarn too!

Ah, and being so close to the waterfront made me want to get back on the water again…
