Meanwhile, my hometown Sears in Greensboro is probably only alive because in addition to taking on Lands End in its building, it carved out a fourth of it for Whole Foods in 2010. It looks just as sad and empty as others and the last one here in Maryland closed over the weekend.
And I crochet prolifically and Iām working on something in a chunky blended fiber to test proof of concept. I do have knitting needles, but crochet has gotten me where I want to go with sustainable fiber quicker and I still enjoy the local yarn culture (that yarn festival and those alpacas sound so dreamy!)And if you want to see all my work, I have a separate platform for it @Kristpattern. I need to crank my Substack for it up more, but on IG and building a Pinterest as I sell patterns. And want to do more of my urban yarn nights this year!
Thank you, Kristen! That's so interesting- are you saying that part of your Sears became a standalone Lands' End store? That's wild!
Thanks for sharing your crochet work too! I just followed your Instagram and it's full of inspiration for me. I love when I know people for one thing (in your case urbanism) and then find out they have other cool interests!
Another good one! I hope you get your syrup!

Thanks for including my thoughts on Sears in your Wednesday Walk this week!
Thanks for sharing them with me! :)
