Stay strong Circle of Stitches - you can support them online while their physical location is closed for a short time for repairs!! Share the love 🧶❤️
Dear fiber friends,
It’s with a very heavy heart that I’m sharing that our brick and mortar location is closed until further notice. Yesterday a pipe burst in our building, and flooded our store with an inch of standing water. We’re hoping to be closed for no more than 2-3 weeks. In the meantime, our online shop will stay open.
The good news is that a very small percentage of our inventory was damaged, so we’re able to keep the online shop going. The bad news is we don’t know how long it will take us to re-open, as our flooring needs to be pulled up, and damaged drywall needs to be removed.
We need your help to stay afloat. We’re working with our insurance company to cover as much of the loss as possible, but we already know they won’t cover everything. One of our uncovered expenses will be payroll: we’ll continue paying our staff while we’re closed. Our dye studio and workshop space will remain open, and workshops will run as scheduled.
How you can help:
- Our online shop is open. Please think of us for your next project. If you have the budget but no project in mind, maybe you can send a crafty friend a gift?
- A low cost way to help out is to buy some of our digital patterns
- Sign up for a workshop
- Visit Toil & Trouble Studio and pick up some hand dyed yarn
- Share our shop with your crafty friends!
With your support, I’m sure we can make it through this and get our little shop back up and running. Thank you, as always, for making Circle of Stitches possible.
