We are a Canadian-owned small business, shipping from Montreal. With recent tariffs affecting trade between Canada and the U.S., we want to be transparent about where our products come from and the companies we work with. Supporting businesses at different stages of production—whether in manufacturing or distribution—helps sustain jobs in multiple regions.
Here’s a breakdown of the brands we carry:
Kollage – A proudly Canadian company. Their needles are made and distributed in Canada.
KnitPro – An Indian company. Their products are made in India, with a Canadian distributor.
ChiaoGoo – An American-owned company. Their needles are made in China, with a Canadian distributor.
Lykke – An American-owned company. Their needles are made in Nepal and distributed from the U.S.
By shopping with us, you’re supporting a Canadian business and contributing to the jobs created through both manufacturing and distribution.

I've been knitting full time since 2015 for my Etsy shop La Tisserande Mtl. In those years I've tested a variety of yarns and needles and I wanted to share my discoveries in this new shop, which brought me to open Knitting Anxiety in December 2020 <3
I try as much as possible to select organic yarns and package orders with compostable mailers.
The name Knitting Anxiety comes from my friend Chloé who was helping me find a name for La Tisserande Mtl, I didn't use it then but I always liked it, I thought it would be perfect for this shop :)
