Heard in a Yarn Shop

“There are so many things I want to make. But I never want to knit sleeves again.” Heard in a yarn shop.

Victory!

Mary is brilliant - creating mind-blowing designs and techniques. 🧶 workshop.

He’s more entertaining than knitting. It was the right trade off.

I’m hosting a community roundtable for small businesses this Friday to talk about how we’re all feeling and coping and what we can do to survive and support each other. links.kategilbert.com/widget/form/...

I would love that!!

We're Moving Find us in our new home starting Saturday, March 1 390 Davis Dr., Units 103-104 Newmarket Important Dates: • CLOSED from February 24 - 28 • GRAND RE-OPENING PARTY Friday, March 7 - come celebrate with us!

Not sure how many local makers follow us here. Just in case there are, we’re moving! 🎉

The new space has parking, a level entrance, a dedicated classroom and plenty of space to grow! 🧶

We are a hopeful people!

Or hoping it will “block out” when you know instinctively that it won’t.

🤣

The brain fog is real!

Wise choice!

“Dangerous to walk in, impossible on stairs” is suboptimal and kind of scary.

I hope that kid still cherishes the blanket!

😂 I feel that way about any twisted ribbing. It looks so good, but takes so long.

I’ll start, my biggest mistake is the same one almost every damn time: continuing to knit when I know the size is wrong. Too big, too small or the wrong needle. I can ignore the obvious for a long time.

“The longer you knit the bigger your mistakes.”

What is your biggest crochet or knit mistake? 🧶

I feel like loud never equals knowledgeable. But then, I’m an introvert, of course I think that way. The pendulum will swing. Hopefully before too much and too many are damaged. There are hard days ahead. I wish we could have tea and chat.

A happy accident!

Super cute!

That is a beautiful way to describe it!

It starts with good intentions and then shiny new things call us!

Kudos for knitting with black. My tired eyes cannot handle it.

The Yarn Harlot once said, you can recognize a knitter because their hats, scarves and mittens won’t match. I’m fumbling the quote, but the gist sticks with me. We get distracted by the next shiny, new skein/colour/pattern. 🧶

Are you a matchy matchy maker or one who follows their muse?

In knitting and crochet (but also life and business) the loudest voice in the room rarely has the answers. What do we have to change to start hearing the introverts?

Ha, ha!

If you haven’t made a Woolly Wormhead hat, now is the time!

WW understands hats and heads at an architectural level.

Happy anniversary to the Hat Architect! Here’s to many more years ✨
