Memphis, get your needles ready! A new hub for fiber arts enthusiasts is making its debut in the heart of our city. Stitching Supply, the latest addition to Chickasaw Oaks, is setting up shop with a mission to inspire and equip the creative souls of Memphis. With its grand opening scheduled for September 5th, this boutique is not just another craft store—it’s a community.
Knit One, Purl Two: A Craft Lover’s Dream
Located at 3092 Poplar Avenue, Suite 12, in Chickasaw Oaks, Stitching Supply offers premium yarns and threads. It’s stocked with high-quality materials from independent, woman-owned suppliers like Jems Luxe Fibers, LeRoo Cotton, and Big Sky Yarn Co. This woman-owned business is dedicated to curating a selection that brings the best of the fiber arts world right to Memphis. Whether you’re into knitting, crocheting, or other needlework crafts, you’ll find something that speaks to your creative passion here.
What sets Stitching Supply apart is its commitment to quality and community. From the moment you step into the shop, you’ll be welcomed into a space designed to spark creativity and foster connections. The shop’s cozy community table invites fiber artists of all levels to sit, create, and share their work in a supportive environment.
Grand Opening Celebration
Mark your calendars for a weekend of fun and creativity! The ribbon-cutting ceremony kicks off on Thursday, September 5th at 4:00 p.m., followed by an open house-style celebration.
The first 16 customers will snag a free Stitching Supply tote bag, but the excitement doesn’t stop there. The weekend is packed with special activities, treats, drinks, and giveaways, making it the perfect time to explore what Stitching Supply has to offer.
"We are excited to open our doors and welcome the community to Stitching Supply. Our goal is to create an inviting space where yarn and crafting enthusiasts can find everything they need to unleash their creativity and connect with like-minded people."
Tangled in Creativity: Classes and Events
Stitching Supply is a place to learn and grow your skills. Starting this fall, they’ll be offering a variety of classes for both beginners and experienced fiber artists. With instructors like Amanda Carpenter leading knitting projects and advanced techniques, and Bethany Chu teaching crochet, there’s something for everyone. Whether you’re just starting or looking to refine your craft, these classes provide the perfect opportunity to expand your skills.
And it doesn’t end there. Stitching Supply will host knit-alongs, hook-alongs, and pop-up shows with their independent dyers, giving you even more reasons to keep coming back. Jems Luxe Fibers is already scheduled for October 5th, offering a chance to explore unique, high-quality yarns in person.
Spooling Out Community Connections
Stitching Supply is more than just a place to buy yarn—it’s a community gathering space where creativity thrives. Erica Carpenter and her team are passionate about making Stitching Supply a place where everyone feels welcome, regardless of age or skill level.
"We’re on the lookout for more instructors to provide specialty classes. Stitching Supply is for all ages and skill levels, and we want everyone to feel welcome here as we foster a place for creativity and camaraderie."
Their mission goes beyond selling products; it’s about celebrating the beauty of fiber arts and building a vibrant community of enthusiasts. This aligns perfectly with the spirit of Memphis, a city known for its rich cultural tapestry and strong sense of community.
