Blackbird Knitting & Needlework

Our mission is to provide affordable, quality yarn and supplies to knitters, crocheters, spinners, felters, and needleworkers.

We offer classes in all things fibre-related and carry locally made goods from Alberta artisans.

The cozy, warm atmosphere in this knitting shop is a place to connect, learn and purchase supplies. If you need inspiration, pattern help, supplies for your next project, or even just want to hang out and chat, we're here for you. All are welcome to join our cozy little community!

In 2023 we will have a new limited edition colour way based on a different bird that will be available for purchase each month. You will receive one 400m skein of hand dyed yarn on our soft and squishy sock base (75% Merino, 25% Nylon). There will be a few months where your skien will also include a beautiful enamel pin. We wanted to make this club accessible to all, so we decided to have it as a monthly purchase instead of only providing a purchase for the whole year.

SHOP

I'm so thrilled Leduc has our own quality yarn store! Beautiful yarns, local hand dyed yarns, and the cutest shop assistant you've ever seen. She carries a great selection of notions, lots of books, and her custom embroidery!!! I was gobsmacked when I saw the final result. I can't say enough good things about this local gem. Let's support local and keep this vital business thriving.

Beautiful store and lovely, sincere, and helpful staff. I'd highly recommend this store!

If excellent quality knitting and crocheting is valuable to you, this place is for you. This isn't a place that just competes on price of the lowest calibre items like a large scale retailer would. (Blackbird is not exclusive to experts. It does have entry level essentials for a fair price to be clear.) If you are looking for exotic materials and specialty goods, then Blackbird excels. They believe in what they do and are genuine with the identity they have.
