Store 592 Grand Canyon Drive

 Covid-19 Announcement

From an email sent out March 25th: 

The following policies are in place for our company until further notice:

Our brick-and-mortar store in Madison, WI will be closed until further notice due to continuing cases of COVID-19.

We are no longer offering curbside pickup of orders, as none of our staff will be at work consistently. Our staff will continue to ship online orders from our studio as long as our we follow proper social distancing guidelines. To best ensure the safety of our staff, our shipping will be consolidated into two batches: one on Tuesdays and one on Fridays.

You can continue to expect our regular Friday newsletter full of new goodies every week. The only change there is that some of our new colorways may be pre-orders instead of ready to ship items. During this time, your support means everything to us! Our crew currently has two pregnant team members, two more working moms, and two employees whose paycheck from Knitcircus is their only household income. We couldn't still be here without you, and we miss seeing your smiling faces in our store every day. Thank you.

To find out more about my approach to equitable employment, check out the Real Talk with Tian podcast, where I talk about my experiences in becoming the owner of Knitcircus and the scholarship spot I sponsor in Tian's pattern grading course. I recorded the interview (without swearing? who even am I?!) before anything serious had happened in the U.S. with this virus, and now I'm literally putting my money where my mouth is. It's worth a listen, if I may humbly say so myself.

In the meantime, we'd love to see what you're working on, so be sure to tag @knitcircus_yarns on your Instagram posts, post to our Ravelry boards, or simply send us an email with photos. :)
If you want to keep up with what the Knitcircus crew is doing from home, check our Instagram stories and posts to see how our team works remotely with good humor and camaraderie.
