StitchCraft, LLC

Now that I can talk about it...I'm opening a retail yarn and fabric boutique here in downtown Vancouver. I'm so excited. My first business. I turn 40 this year and owning my own business is on my list of things to do. All that's left on the list is travel, official surfing lessons, scuba diving certification and bagging a 12,000 ft. or higher peak. Of course, growing old with my man is on the list too.

StitchCraft, LLC is Vancouver, Washington's premier yarn and fabric boutique. Handmade is beautiful (c).

StitchCraft, LLC features yarn, fabric, patterns, books and notions with a fashion forward sense using high quality, natural fibers. If you love to sew, knit, crochet, embroider, embellish - this is a boutique for you. We also carry a nice stash of organic yarns, fabric and lace and hand dyed wool felt.

My idea for the shop came with my experience as a knitwear designer and instructor, but I've been sewing just as long as I've been crocheting and knitting (from about age 7). My business experience in corporate real estate was essential in creating my business plan. The organic side of the business comes from my chemistry degree along with years as an environmental, health and safety professional. This shop is really the essence of who I am all put together. I can't wait to meet all the people that love to create and give them quality tools to work with.


I'll post some pics of the shop in raw form soon. I'll also have the website up sometime this week.
