Thank you to Portland Press Herald and staff member Aimsel Ponti. (Edited to add: Additional thanks to the always eloquent Erin Flett who wrote this wonderful piece and is due full credit!)
Such beautiful, kind words. Huge gratitude for making us feel like a valued part of Gorham Village and the community!
“Olde School Fiber & Craft is such a beautiful addition to Main Street. I’m not a knitter, but I love this sweet shop. The branding, window typography and eclectic antique merchandising are perfection. Every detail is thoughtfully curated, making it a special destination and elevating our little shopping village here in Gorham.”
If you’re new around here, we had the honor of renovating an early 1900s storefront back to its original glory, transforming it into a cozy, inspiring creative space. Full to the brim of fiber craft supplies, gorgeous colors and project samples.
Highlights include:
➕ all 500 colors of DMC embroidery floss
➕ huge selection of Knitting for Olive yarns
➕ rotating collection of cross stitch patterns, embroidery kits and needle minders
➕ over 80 shades of Jamiesons of Shetland Spindrift
➕ an entire rainbow of ontheround Nimble Sock
➕ gorgeous weaving kits from Flax & Twine
We offer a huge variety of classes nearly every weekend, teaching new skills and refining existing ones. We believe in keeping the old ways alive, and we hope you’ll drop in for a visit soon to see it for yourself!
