The Itty Bitty Yarn Co.

The Itty Bitty Yarn Co. Hi I’m Karen. I am the owner of The Itty Bitty Yarn Co. I hope you’ll stop in and say hi. Don't know how to knit or crochet, or its been a while? Don't fret.

My favourite things to do, is to launch others into the world of knit and crochet, in a relaxed, patient and fun environment. What started out as a small Mississauga based shop, that moved to private lessons in my basement, after moving to Listowel, has evolved once again, into a brick and mortar location. Located in Mitchell, ON, and measuring in at just over 200sqft, the shop is aptly named The

Itty Bitty Yarn Co. As a proud Canadian, the goal is to source inventory from Canadian-based, indie dyers, and support their small businesses. Our inventory is made up, primarily of high quality, unique, finger-weight yarns, which can be used to create one of a kind socks, shawls, hats, etc. By pairing with a complimentary solid yarn, thus increasing the gauge, the possibilities are endless. One-on-one classes are available, for those 10 to 100+. Looking for something to do? Grab your knitting or crocheting project, and come visit. Coffee is always on. Watch this page, for additional activities being offered.
