Casper's Fibrecrafts Journey (Part One)
I am genuinely surprised that the first fibrecraft I truly clicked with was crochet.

Knit In Public Day! Are you joining us?

Eleanor's always loved putting on a good event. This year, it's no different.

Why do I avoid doing the stuff that I love and that's good for the shop? I just feel so guilty about having fun...
