It’s time to send some big love to another incredible fibre alumn – Kim! 

I will be honest, I haven’t seen Kim in person in years (lol)! It is incredible how much impact someone can have on the shop without even being on site.

Kim joined the yarnista team over a decade ago, back when the shop was located on King Street. She immediately offered her expertise in writing and editing/proofreading, providing us with expertise that I hadn’t previously had regular access. After leaving her yarnista position, Kim offered to continue writing and proofing our newsletter, class descriptions, and more. Now, a dozen or so years later, Kim’s eyes are still on nearly every piece of communication the shop sends out.

Beyond technical support for editing, Kim can provide another level of crucial input. By not being in the shop daily, as most of our team are, she can offer us a fresh perspective on our ideas and language. She is seemingly always available to answer any question I might have, whether it’s how to word a particularly difficult message, or whether an event concept makes sense. Kim has given fibre space far more than we can “hire” in the traditional sense, and I am so incredibly grateful. I love hearing from team members about this magical Kim person they love working with … but have yet to meet!

Might I add, Kim also loves rich jewel tones and green as much as I do, and who doesn’t love having a cheerleader for their color choices and obsessions?! Thank you for everything you have done to keep this little ship afloat, Kim!
