Welcome to Happy Sheep Creations:
A Knitting and Craft Cafe with Purpose
At Happy Sheep Creations, we invite you to step into a cozy, creative space where community and crafting come together. Nestled in the historic Craw Home, our knitting cafe is more than just a place to enjoy a warm beverage and work on your current project—it's a place where we support one another, craft with purpose, and give back to our community.
Our Cafe: A Gathering Place for Crafters of All Kinds

Supporting Our Community Through Crafting
At Happy Sheep Creations, we believe in the power of giving back. Our SOC Project is designed to help those in need through handmade goods. Ruth, the owner of Happy Sheep Creations, collects knitted mittens, hats, scarves, blankets, and more to be donated to local charities. We also provide free fabric and yarn at our cafe for those who want to contribute but may not have the materials to do so.
You can make a difference by simply bringing your talents to the table—whether you’re an experienced knitter or just getting started, your creations can bring warmth and comfort to someone in need.
A Historic Home with a Rich Story
The Craw Home, where our craft cafe is hosted, is a gem of history. Built in 1840, the home has a story as rich as its surroundings. In 1902, Hattie Craw, a trailblazing woman of her time, defied societal expectations by purchasing the property—a remarkable achievement in an era when women faced significant challenges in owning property.
In 2016, the Craw Home was officially named a Historical Landmark, cementing its place in local history. Today, Jim and Ruth, siblings and owners of Just A Stitch Away, continue to lovingly renovate the property, ensuring it maintains its historic charm while transforming it into a vibrant space for creative gatherings. Every time you step into our cafe, you’re surrounded by history, creativity, and a deep connection to our community’s past.
Join Us for Events Throughout the Year
In addition to our open crafting sessions, Happy Sheep Creations hosts a variety of knitting and crafting events throughout the year. These gatherings are perfect for learning new skills, connecting with fellow crafters, and contributing to the ongoing legacy of community support. From holiday-themed projects to charity fundraisers, there's always something exciting happening at the cafe.
Stay tuned for announcements on upcoming events, workshops, and classes!
