We have been privileged to build a veritable dream team of knitting power-houses at Espace Tricot who bring an incredible range of complementary strengths and talents to the shop every single day. This bunch makes sure that the store runs smoothly and that our customers always find cheerful, professional, and helpful service in a welcoming atmosphere.
We would be lost without them!
