Nova Scotia – The Crochet Crowd Studio
The Crochet Crowd Studio is located in the village of Greenwich, Nova Scotia. In spring 2020, the studio was converted back to being the filming location and working space of The Crochet Crowd. All yarn that was in the studio was sold off.
The studio walls will be reset with yarn that is part of our personal collection. This yarn is used for tutorial creation and yarn we have collected over the years.
The Crochet Crowd Studio is closed to the public. However, once COVID-19 is under control and understood, our weekly group meetups will resume. There is no sense of timing on when that will be.
Our home is positioned in a tourist region of Nova Scotia, in the heart of the Annapolis Valley of orchards. In fact, there are approximately 20 wineries and breweries around us. Backed by Acadia University drawing in people from all over the world.
Introducing our Studio
Yarn sales have been discontinued from the studio.
Our move to Nova Scotia was a personal one and with our company in mind. Repositioning ourselves into a community that is diverse, accessible and thriving in arts. The yarn arts are no stranger to this part of Canada. In fact, there are 4 locations to buy yarn surrounding our home.
The Crochet Nutcrackers
So I kept going over the idea of Stitch Socials at our Yarn Studio on our property. It would be nice for a weekly social. The Crochet Nutcrackers have been returned from the National Arts Centre in Ottawa. It’s now in the studio and available for viewing when the studio re-opens for stitch socials.
Daniel’s idea hits my heart hard. I love sculpture making the most in crochet. However, it’s better to have a team of people based on size and timing. The recognition after a sculpture is done is undeniably rewarding. People who view the sculptures are in awe.

With Any Stitch Social Gathering
Our concept is for experienced beginners and beyond. With any stitch social gatherings, we have done. You learn a lot from sitting with other crocheters. Our groups that attend our events are usually very energetic. Our goal is to have fun and do something amazing together as a stitch community.
Most of our events are not local but in other regions as we travel.
I love to look at what you do. I crochet. I like to use thread best.
Sadly I am just a bit too far to travel weekly, I am right next door in New Brunswick. Welcome to the Maritimes, you will absolutely love it here! (especially in the summer ?)
Looks like a beautiful and fun place to live. Lots of adventures in your future! Just don’t have so much fun you forget us…LOL!! Really happy for you guys. This change will be good for you both I’m sure. Much love!
Wish I lived closer to participate. Thank you, thank you for so many wonderful patterns and videos. Both of my daughters came for Christmas and picked out several afghans apiece with your designs at the forefront. Best Christmas present ever that they appreciate my creations! Wishing you great happiness and success.
Sadly I live in Virginia USA but if I lived close enough to travel to your location I would most certainly enjoy being part of this group and would gladly pay for membership. Good luck and I will pray for it to all work out the way you would like it. 🙂
Sounds like a great idea! Another thought… Would you be interested in holding crochet weekends? Sort of like they do for scrapbooking? There are a lot of great B&B’s that we could stay, etc. Either way, can’t wait to see what you guys come up with. <3
This would be such fun! I hope that you will post photos of the group and projects for those of us who live far far away (like me, in Sydney, Australia.) It might inspire branches of Crochet Crowd fans to get together and make their own sculptures.
Very interesting. Good luck with your endeavors
This is a great idea and I wish I lived closer. It is a great idea for people who share your love of crochet and Daniel’s creativity. Art inspired people might be interested in learning a new way to express their creativity. For people who already crochet, it would be a way to learn new things and how to step it up a notch or two. I would really love something like this and would participate if I didn’t live in Florida.
Wishing you and Daniel a Happy Christmas and much love in 2018! Sad to see you go, but Nova Scotia sounds like a perfect fit for you two!!! All that you have done for the crochet community and all the videos, it is so creative and appreciated. You taught me to crochet after knitting for over 20 years. Diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, I had to adapt and change my hobby. You are such an inspiration and fun loving person, and Daniel is awesome and so funny as well. I wish you such success!!!
Hugs
