Welcome to the first in our Featured Artist Series! Symone graciously granted us an interview and the chance to showcase some of the work that she’s created with fibres from the Gallery. We’ve published that interview here for your enjoyment. Hi Symone! Can you tell us a bit about yourself? I’m a Trinidadian native who’s…

We’ve counted a few skeins this past week, and here’s a sneak peak at what we’ve been up to. This shows JUST the Ancient Arts Socknado, and does not include the newest arrival (quick peak at the end of the video).

If you were looking for a particular COTM (Colour of The Month), we found a few favourites hidden under these beauties.

Inventory is all updated and online. Orders must be placed through the e-commerce site, as phones will not be monitored on a regular basis.

All Ancient Arts Socknado, Passion 8, and mini skeins, as well as kits, and other yarn bases on sale 20% off until Jan 23rd, while supplies last.
There are sweater quantities in several colours.

Curbside pickup available as well as ship via Canada Post. #ancientartsyarn #supportsmallbusinesses #yarnsale #shoplocal #winterishere #loveforlocalnb #wherethewildflowersgrowgallery #makeityourself #sockknitting

The shop is currently closed to in person shopping

The shop is currently closed to in person shopping due to the ongoing situation with the pandemic. We cannot safely offer in store shopping and therefore we will be closed to in store shopping until January 22. At that time, we will re-evaluate and decide how to proceed.
If you require assistance with a project, feel free to contact us through messenger, and we will help you as best we can. If you received a Gift Card, and would like to use it, please contact me. (They cannot be redeemed through the e-commerce site, but I do have a work around)
We offer curbside pickup, and our e-commerce site is open always. We ship ASAP.

Happy Solstice!!

The shop will be open tomorrow, but only until the weather begins to turn. I will be open a bit earlier than normal (likely around 9-ish) and closing around noon. Plan is to be open again Thursday 10-4, and Friday 10-noonish.
Hours for next week are currently under consideration. I can be open by appointment, just message me. And the online shop is always open, contactless pickup option, or ship via Canada post.

Btw, I have to say that Canada Post service has been above and beyond this year. Way to step it up “Posties”. Much appreciated.
