Calandra Coward
The Nurse Who Knits
Handknit hats, headbands & apparel using high quality merino wool
Calandra and Tori met in nursing school, forming a deep bond and mutual love for knitting. Along with a great friendship and business, knitting has also provided them with a creative outlet from their busy careers. With Tori based in Northern Ontario and Calandra traveling full-time, they gain inspiration from coast to coast and transfer their love of the outdoors into every garment. Using only the highest quality, ethically sourced merino wool, Calandra and Tori strive to make pieces that are breathable, itch-free, one-of-a-kind, and above all, incredibly soft.
Calandra and Tori care deeply for people and find joy in making their customers feel comforted with each soft, cozy item. Their goal is to leave every customer excited to either explore the outdoors, or wrap themselves in a cozy sweater in front of the fire.
Calandra and Tori are proud to be able to exhibit in 3 large craft shows this year all while working full time and pursuing further education. Their long term goals would include adding shows across Canada and selling in shops.
