Coronavirus pandemic: Information for customers

It is very difficult to describe the feeling of locking up your shop after the last day of regular business for an unknown period. At the best of times, small business ownership is fraught with uncertainty. But this is something new and strange. In a sense, though, there’s comfort in knowing that we’re all in it together. Every one of us. We know that you know this, because of all the support and kindness you have shown us over the last several days. For that, a heartfelt thank you to all of our regular customers, and to the new and soon-to-be makers who included us in their plans for the long stretch of home-time ahead. As one door closes (albeit temporarily), another one opens: we are working steadily on getting The Loop’s web store ready for you, and are hoping to have it live by the end of the week. It’s been a steep learning curve, and there will no doubt be glitches, but we are polishing it up... "Knit on with confidence and hope, through all crises." -Elizabeth Zimmerman
