Gobsmacked Yarn is the newest addition to downtown Sackville’s commercial landscape.
Owner Marit Munson has been dyeing yarn since 2012, and when she outgrew her space at home, decided to expand into a space that allowed for both her studio and a retail shop.
The grand opening of Gobsmacked is happening this Saturday, along with Worldwide Knit in Public Day. The celebrate the day, Munson is collaborating with another Sackville dyer, Megan Ingman of Lichen and Lace, for a ‘mini yarn crawl’ between the two studios.
“The dye power here in Sackville is pretty incredible,” says Munson. “Lichen and Lace is a business that’s known worldwide, and then there’s a bunch of artists in town who also have really amazing practices with natural dyes, and all kinds of neat things going on.”
