Let's be really clear. If I had not met Heather I wouldn't have started knitting a couple years ago, wouldn't have kept at it, wouldn't have knitting as a vital creative place in my life, and wouldn't have some of the best people I know as friends. While she patiently helps to correct knitting errors and impart knowledge she gently opens up the places within me that can learn, grow, and create. I have no doubt that any monetary support I give Heather's yarn shop will be triply repaid - in friendship, guidance, inspiration, and love for craft and the community it creates.

Heather is the best. A true fiber artist, her knowledge and expertise is invaluable. After just one knitting lesson, I was hooked. I can't say enough about how kind and patient she is. Under her tutelage, I have grown from knowing one stitch to knitting sweaters. Love her!

I am so grateful to Heather. She gracefully taught me how to knit and helped me understand how to "read" my stitches. She is so patient! I joined her Tuesday knitting group when I retired 5 years ago and have made lifelong friends!!! Under Heather's instruction I have advanced from garter stitch lap blankets to socks and sweaters!!! So happy I learned to knit but happier I met Heather!!!

Heather is a joy to work with and has a welcoming personality. She is a master knitter and always has good knitting advice and instruction. She has a clear knowledge of the yarns and knitting tools she works with and a great sense of color. Heather is fun to shop with and has always been forthcoming with knitting advice and instruction as I grew into a new hobby. I have been introduced to several “new to me” knitting techniques and she is always ready to help with problems. When I am out and about, I often visit the shop to take a break and knit with Heather. She brings calmness and friendship to me. I love it!

My retirement goal 6 years ago was to learn how to knit. Before I had a 30 year career in the insurance industry I spun, wove, dyed and crocheted but never knit. Heather has me now knitting socks, sweaters and hats. I can now read my stitches. This is remarkable.I have also made dear friends in her knitting group. Now that I am quarantined along with the rest of the planet, Heather continues to be so supportive and helpful.
