| - On Saturday, I wanted to visit a Michaels store. I am inspired to learn how to knit and crochet.
After doing a quick search, I found this location close to where I was at the time. I didn't know that there is a pocket of stores tucked away on the south side of Kingston Road.
This Michaels looks fairly knew compared to my local one in Markham. I parked practically in front of the main doors and walked in.
Normally, I get lost in Michaels. I do well finding areas such as jewellery, yarn, and picture frames. I also managed to find the washrooms, which were clean. The best part is that you hit the women's washroom before the men's, which was a nice change.
My true test visiting any Michaels store is to find calligraphy pens. I have the worst time finding such a specific, small section. Guess what? I found the section in a heartbeat. It has a decent selection of calligraphy pens with felt nibs that are like markers, pens with nibs that you dip in ink, and pens that you need to refill with ink. I was happy!
I had a good time researching what yarns and simple projects I want to learn to do. It's interesting that I am fine with loom and cork knitting, but give me two knitting needles and I need help!
This store is bright and clean. Staff were friendly.
