Meet Heather Mcclellan Harmison

Today we’re excited to be connecting with Heather Mcclellan Harmison again. If you haven’t already, we suggest you check out our prior conversation with them here.

Heather, we are so thrilled to be connecting again and can’t wait to hear about all the amazing things you have been up to. Before we jump into all of that, some of our readers might have missed our prior interview, so can you take a moment to reintroduce yourself?
Hello! My name is Heather McClellan Harmison and I am the owner of On The Lamb Yarn Shoppe located in Grapevine. The shoppe has just celebrated its 5 year anniversary and I could not be more excited! We offer crochet and knitting classes as well as all the yarns and notions for any project. We have built an amazing community of fiber friends and enjoy weekly meetups as well as other fiber related events throughout the year.

Awesome, so we reached out because we wanted to hear all about what you have been up to since we last connected.
The shoppe opened just a short 3 months before the pandemic started and it has definitely been a ride. The first few years of being a small business are a struggle and the last five years have delivered all the ups and downs. With our community and loyal customers, the shoppe has managed to sustain and grow.

Alright, so let’s do something a bit more fast-paced and lighthearted. We call this our lightning round and we’ll ask you a few quick questions.
