If you’re interested in learning to knit, contact your local yarn shop. Most all yarn shops offer classes that range from beginner to advanced skill classes. Here are a couple in the Dallas area that I highly recommend!
The Woolie Ewe – This is the largest yarn shop in the area (Plano) and they carry some of the highest quality yarns produced. I have a hard time controlling myself when I go there! They have a fun blog that offers occasional recipes for fun. You’ll find lots of helpful experienced knitters there to help you get started!

The Shabby Sheep – This cozy little shop nestled in Uptown (Dallas) is filled with yummy yarns and inspiration. They offer lots of classes and a weekly “PJ’s and Pearls” knit night. Download their most recent calendar here. One of my favorite things about The Shabby Sheep? Abby, the shop dog…she’s yummy, warm and soft, just like the yarn!

The minute I walked into my first yarn shop, I came to realize that I have a love of texture, color and a need to create. I really believe that this epiphany led me to continue to allow myself to explore the need for creativity in my life that I had stuffed away while I engrossed myself in my career. I’m so thankful that I have discovered the importance of a healthy balance and the ability to allow my “right brain” to be a part of my every day life!
