Meet Us

From left to right: Janet, Lori, Fran and Lyn.

The staff members at Fidalgo Artisan Yarn & Clothing are passionate about yarns and fibers.  And what is so unique, and frankly so amazing, is that each of us has a different fiber focus and differing expertise.  The thing we have in common is our love to create and our love to share with and help others.  You won’t find another shop like ours.

_____________________________________

LORI.  As shop owner and hand-dyeing mastermind, Lori revels in the magic of creating walls of color.  Lori is in the shop Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday and enjoys assisting our shop guests with color, fit, fiber, and design ideas.

FRAN.  As our knitting instructor extraordinaire, Fran is well known and loved by many who have taken her classes, been part of her groups, and sought out her expert help and encouragement.  As a master knitter, her love of knitting is outdone only by her love of sharing the ins and outs of it with those of us lucky enough to be in her orbit.  Fran also designs most of our shop patterns.  She is in the shop on Sunday.

JANET.  Janet brings to us her love of knitting, crocheting and a good strong cup of coffee. Fearless in her sense of color, she’ll happily lay out different combinations and help you knit up various swatches until just the right one makes your heart sing.  Janet is in the shop on Thursday.

LYN. She simply loves knitting.  Lyn especially enjoys being with other knitters because they understand “never not knitting” and that you can never have enough yarn.  Knitters relate to why we think about next projects when having just cast on a different project, and share support and good humor when un-knitting for the third or fourth time!  Lyn is eager to help and works a flexible schedule.
