Knitscene
Accessories 2015
-------
Summer is the perfect (perfect!) time to knit accessories. Even if you don't normally go in for smaller projects, try taking time this season to work on light, portable items that could maybe even be... dare I say, holiday gifts?
Vancouver Made 
----- 
Vancouver Candle Co. 

 Handmade in the heart of Vancouver, each candle in the collection is named and inspired by neighbourhoods within the City.

 

Using traditional methods, these candles are made from premium soy wax blends, perfume-grade fragrance oils and 100% cotton wicks, and have a burn time of approximately 60 hours.

 

Pop into the store and you will probably experience one or two fragrances from the Vancouver Candle Co. You may just enjoy it enough to bring one home with you.

Kas Designs Bags
These unique knitting bags are designed and created by local artisan Kathy Siemens. Inspiration for each bag comes from beautiful fabrics found in discontinued decorator sample books - these recycled functional works of art are all distinct.

   
Even more impressive, proceeds from each bag go to support those in need on on downtown's Eastside.

We currently have a range of totes and backpacks, as well a limited edition prototype circular needle holder - you have to see it to believe it!




(Please note that inventory levels may vary between stores)
