Need a little creative community in your life? 🧵 In Northern Colorado, sewing and knitting circles are bringing people together in ways that go far beyond yarn and needles.
At The Twisted Stitch in downtown Fort Collins, co-owners Mariah Tree and Nadia Hare have built a space centered on creativity, inclusion, and genuine connection. Whether you are brand new or have been crafting for years, you are welcomed with open arms. Tree brings years of knitting experience and a warm, patient teaching style, while Hare brings strong business experience and local community roots that help the shop thrive. Together they have created a place where people can learn, unwind, share stories, and feel part of something bigger.
From Thursday “open stitch” nights to beginner friendly classes, these crafting hubs remind us that creativity is a powerful way to build friendships and support in NOCO.
