Anyone visited any yarn shops in Hungary? We'll be on the border very close to Slovenia for a week, then in Budapest and Vienna. I love to find yarn shops wherever possible to bring home good finds and knit up something from my travels.

Here are some I fouund for you, they are known az Fonal Uzlet ( yarn shop)..
I hope that these are helpful!! Have a great time. I too am heading to Budapest in 51 days but who's counting?

Thank you, Gregeva1! Wow, what a list! Have you been to any of these stores or just found this list somewhere online? My husband says he'll help me find one or two, so I'd like to figure out which are the best ahead of time.
Thanks again.

I have never been but I looked them up for you on the internet. I tried to give you ones in Budapest instead of in the suburbs...I hope you find some unique stuff.

Have a blast.

Hi,

I made a post about yarn shops in Budapest on my blog:
http://chaloperie.canalblog.com/arch...7/1897415.html
these are my favourites.
I know a few of the previous shops mentioned above, I dont like too much the one on Podmaniczky, it's very small, very little choice.. i'd recommend you the Burda shop.
Hope it's not too late...
K.

No, it's not too late. We're not going till the end of June. I'll definitely try the Burda shop. Thanks!
