Heather

Heather doesn't remember a time when she did not knit. Her aunt taught her at an early age and there has been no looking back since then. Having always been creative, knitting provided a means to make everything from doll clothes to Christmas ornaments. As she grew up patterns entered her life and so did socks, mittens sweaters etc. Obtaining good yarn was always a problem, however, until the inception of Have a Yarn. A family friend started several small craft shops as satellites to his restaurant and she was fortunate enough to manage Have a Yarn. That was in 2000 and Have a Yarn has grown to the thriving entity it is today and she's proud to have been a part of its growth and have the chance to make doing something that she loves as her livelihood.

Angela

Angela started knitting at around 15 years of age. She made a garter stitch scarf, thought, that was easy! and hasn’t looked back since! She has been working full time at Have a Yarn since 2012 and loves a well written pattern with interesting or challenging construction. She has one son, Oscar, who usually tolerates being a knitwear model. You’ll find some of her knitting patterns for sale here in the shop.
