Yarn Across Minnesota

I went to one of my favorite yarn stores yesterday, Needlework Unlimited, to satiate that never ending urge to add more yarn to my stash and I heard something interesting. Laura told me that Minnesota has the highest number of yarn stores per capita than any other state. Can you believe that? I guess I can kinda believe it, I mean we do get rather "robust" winters here. But the most per capita!!! I found a pretty good list of all the yarn stores at The Daily Knitter. I think it would be nice to visit them. I have favorites in the Twin Cities--Minneapolis to be more specific, but I think it would be nice to expand my horizons. I'll start with Saint Paul and go from there.
