Want to go to a really nice yarn shop nestled into a mountain town that is Flagstaff, Arizona?  Well, if you are contemplating a trip to the Grand Canyon, one of the 7 wonders of the world, you could stop in for a visit – Michele Roberts would love it!


 Michele Roberts began knitting at the age of 40.  She was part of a book club that had an annual weekend getaway. She wasn’t aware of it, but there was a plan in place to learn to knit that weekend.  The group stopped at a little local yarn shop in Cortez, Colorado.  It was the first time in a yarn shop for Michele, and she was in her words “absolutely blown away by all the colors and luscious fibers”.  She never saw herself as a knitter before, but she loved it and was HOOKED!!


Roberts has lived in Flagstaff for 20 years, after a lifetime of living in big cities.  She was a licensed Family/Child Therapist and worked in this field for 20 years.  Michele also has a very smart and talented teenage daughter that also just happens to knit, YAY, a fabulous partner and adorable animals, one of whom accompanies her to the store every day…what could be better!

    I love to knit!! 
    Making something new out of a ball of yarn.  I learned from my grandma when is was just a little girl. And always treasured the gift of creating.
