A little over eighteen months ago I began to see the writing on the wall. I knew that my job would eventually end and at the age of 50 + I would eventually be unemployed.

That thought seems so long ago and that was in November of 2007. I knew I wanted to work, but I also realized I did not want to work for someone else. I realized that I wanted to work for myself.

What was it I wanted to do? I wanted something I had passion about, something that I could eventually make a living from…and it came to me.

Me, (Diana) with my alpaca, Moses. Isn't he a doll?
I love to knit, and I would open a knit shop in the downriver area of Michigan. I announced to my family during the Christmas holidays that I was going to go into business for myself. They thought I was crazy, maybe I was. After weeks of searching for the location, my daughter and I found this little shop on a street named Sycamore.

It was perfect.

I opened in May of 2008 with a lot of help from family and friends. I can’t begin to thank them all for all they did and continue to do. They all are amazing. From the bottom of my heart – thank you all!

I feel so very fortunate to do what I love most, knitting. This is my life’s passion. I have had the awesome experience to have the best teachers, the greatest customers and a second home, with a living room area, complete with a fireplace to sit and knit by.

Sycamore Street, Wyandotte. We're right there in the middle.
My customers love it and I know you will too.

Come on in, sit and knit a spell, you’ll be glad you did.
