Sherbrooke Yarn Stormers, listen up!

Our next objective is a big one. It's time to put our needles to the test.  We’re launching Operation: Knitting for Gold in Glasgow, and we're not just going to participate—we're going to get fit!

To lead this monumental effort, Major Mags will now be taking the helm as our official head coach.  Her strategic prowess and unwavering dedication will be the driving force behind our success. 

We are no longer just a group of passionate knitters; we are a team of elite athletes. Every stitch, every purl, and every dropped loop retrieval will be executed with the precision and discipline of a champion.

Get yourselves in focus for all our meetings  in the reception room now called The Gym!

​We are knitting athletes! 

​Let's get training!
