I had the best day yesterday! I met a few terrific artists and had a great conversation with a local Stillwater resident and potential Darn Knit Anyway employee. We also put away a bunch of yarns, which was such a treat.
All week long, people have been walking by the shop…some even poked their heads in the door to have a look around. I am THRILLED when they do this. One particular encounter was especially great. A women from one of the offices upstairs, I’ll call her Pat (cause that’s her name) stopped in. She saw the shelves finally full of yarn and couldn’t resist coming in to say hello. We chatted for a few minutes and she said “I don’t want to invade your personal space or anything, and I don’t even know you, but…I am so happy I could hug you right now”. How great is that? I have been getting such amazing encouragement from everyone and am constantly reassured that I am moving on the right path. Very cool.
So…here are a few of the latest photos of the shop. Sorry for the grainy quality…they were taken from my phone with hands that were shaky from too much coffee!
If you are wandering Stillwater this weekend…stop and say hi!
I am so excited for you and to see your store open! I love your website and am sure your store will be just as great. See you in October!
