DISCOVER OUR STORY AND MISSION

At JOERIAKNITS, every purchase you make does more than stock your craft basket — it helps change lives. As a family-run Canadian online shop specializing in premium knitting needles, crochet hooks, and accessories, we proudly dedicate 20% of our annual net profits to Canadian charities providing treatment and long-term recovery services for substance use disorders. That mission is the heartbeat of everything we do.

JOERIAKNITS was founded in 2021 by Yvonne, whose love of knitting, crochet, and sewing inspired her to build something bigger than a shop. The name honours her parents, Joe and Ria — and her son, whose journey reminds her every day that recovery is possible and hope is real.

It truly is a family affair. Yvonne's stepdaughter Hailley ensures every order is thoughtfully wrapped and sent out with care — because at JOERIAKNITS, the details matter.

Whether you're picking up your first pair of knitting needles or you're a seasoned crocheter looking to upgrade your tools, we're here to help you create something beautiful — for a loved one, or for yourself.

To understand why JOERIAKNITS means so much to us, we invite you to read Yvonne's blog post, The Most Powerful Experience of My Life — and follow along with her story in the Twisted Loops blog.

Joyous knitting and crocheting from our grateful hearts,

Yvonne and Hailley 🧶
