Jordyn, the creative force behind Jackass Collective, is a queer, disabled fibre artist celebrated for her bold use of color and texture. Embracing the philosophy that crafting is inherently political, she infuses her work with vibrant hues and rich textures, creating pieces that are both visually striking and deeply meaningful.

Jordyn’s journey into fibre arts began during the early days of the pandemic when she taught herself to crochet through YouTube tutorials. Initially working with acrylic yarn, she found the results unsatisfactory due to stiffness and sensory discomfort. This led her to explore knitting and experiment with natural fibers, which offered a more pleasing tactile experience.

Her approach to design is intuitive and freeform, often eschewing traditional patterns due to challenges with dyscalculia, a learning disability affecting numerical comprehension. Instead, Jordyn prefers to let her creations evolve organically, embracing mistakes as part of the creative process. She encourages others to “f**k around and find out,” believing that errors are valuable learning opportunities.

In addition to her fibre art, Jordyn is committed to supporting and collaborating with small businesses, reflecting her dedication to community and mutual growth. Through Jackass Collective, she offers a range of hand-dyed yarns, hand-spun fibers, and unique wearable pieces, all embodying her distinctive, unapologetically vibrant aesthetic.

Check out Jordyn on YouTube where she chats “Fibre Fckery” and “Yarn Yapping” Her down to earth, honest and raw personality will have you hooked.

With thousands of hours of hands-on experience, Knicole has mastered a toolkit of top-notch techniques and loves sharing them through weekly tutorials filled with smart tips, interactive learning, and the occasional witty aside from her snarky dog, Oscar. Known for her engaging teaching style (and for knitting with a martini in hand), Knicole is on a mission to help crafters of all levels create brag-worthy projects.

Before yarn took over her life, Knicole taught adult sewing classes and designed everything from wedding dresses to quilted wall hangings. Now, she brings that same creative flair to knitting, tweaking existing designs with smart additions like pockets, collars, and pops of colour. She’s even dabbling in crochet and pattern design, with big plans to publish her own patterns soon.

Whether you’re picking up needles for the first time or looking to sharpen your skills, Knicole Knits is all about building confidence, having fun, and celebrating every stitch along the way.

Knitting Knerds, founded by Zoe, Jane, and Terri, is like a secondhand bookstore—but for yarn!

Knitting Knerds also sell kits for beginners using donated yarn and patterns, as well as handmade knitted and crocheted items created from the rescued yarn. They are passionate about supporting both new and seasoned crafters, helping them save money and the planet.
