Kenana Kritters at Starbucks

The coffee chain Starbucks has chosen Kenana Knitters’ Kritters to feature in their US stores. This a major boost for our knitters and we are already getting feedback from delighted customers!

“I was the happy recipient of a hand-knitted lion from my fiancé, and couldn’t help but take a peek at the tag that was still attached.  I saw the website for Kenana Knitters listed, and the name of the artisan who made the lion (Leah).  It got me to thinking – if I were in her shoes, I wouldn’t be able to help but wonder what became of my creations after they left my hands, and what stories they could tell, if they were to ever return  Well, Leah’s lion has found a home in Burlington, Vermont, here in the United States.  My fiancé bought the lion at the local Starbucks to cheer me up after a very trying day.

I spin yarn and knit some myself, so I was rather pleased to see such good work done on the lion. Hats off, too, to Kenana Knitters for making such a difference in these women’s lives! Please, if you ever are in touch with Leah, let her know what has become of her work, and that almost halfway across the world, at least one person appreciates it?  :) Thank you!”

Warm regards,
Rebecca (Burlington, Vermont)
