Baaad Anna's is an indie yarn & fibre-arts shop in East Village, Vancouver — a wall of yarn, and a calendar of classes in knitting, felting and weaving. This page is an unsolicited draft web design from X9 Lab Media: one site for the shop and the classroom. Photos and prices are placeholders; the shop's words are its own.

This season's classes
Knit · beginner
Cast On, Confidently
Your first project, start to bind-off. Needles and a skein included; leave with a finished cowl and the muscle memory to keep going.
3 evenings$ ?
Felt · all levels
Wet & Needle Felting
Turn loose roving into something solid — a soft vessel, a brooch, a small soft sculpture. Bright wool supplied; bring an apron.
1 afternoon$ ?
Weave · intro
The Frame Loom
Warp it, weave it, take the loom home. A relaxed intro to plain weave, colour blocks and finishing a wall hanging.
2 sessions$ ?
Knit · social
Drop-In Stitch Night
Bring whatever's on your needles. Tea on, a table of regulars, and a hand when you've dropped a stitch three rows back.
Weekly · drop-in$ ?
Crochet · beginner
Hook, Line & Granny Square
From slip-knot to your first granny square in one sitting. The gateway to blankets you'll absolutely finish (eventually).
1 afternoon$ ?
Dye · workshop
Kitchen-Sink Dyeing
Hand-dye a skein with plant dyes and a little chaos. No two come out the same — that's the whole point.
1 afternoon$ ?
Class names, lengths and prices are placeholders — owner to confirm the live calendar. The idea: one site where students browse and book, instead of a separate store.
The wall
Floor-to-ceiling colour, sorted by weight and whim. The kind of wall you photograph before you even pick.
Merino, alpaca, hand-dyed indie skeins, sturdy worsteds for things that get sat on — Baaad Anna's stocks the good stuff and the everyday stuff side by side. The point isn't to overwhelm you; it's to have the one you didn't know you wanted.
Stuck? Someone behind the counter has knit it, felted it, or wound it back into a ball after a project went sideways. Ask. That's what the shop is for.
